Bottle, 33 cl. Many thx to Glenn !
Very dark brown color, almost no (beige) head. Aroma (ripe) fruits, yeast, alcoholic like some port-liquor ? Full body. This is heaven ! Taste = wonderfull, the people who drink with me yesterday this beer, are impressed so much. This is not just an ordinary stout this is a beer outstandig of catagory !
Ripe fruits, sweet, good alcoholic but not to, some chocolate and maybe a little cocos , and a bitter touch.
Very great beer, the best brew of Alvinne i’ll think.
Like to taste this beer again over 2-3 years.

Jul 21, 2008 Twickenham Brewery tasting 08. Very dark brown thick beige head. Some of that vanillary oaky flavour. Woody and herby. Not bad, but not my kinda beer. Some sourness.

Jul 20, 2008 <i>A Mes rate: Bottle at the Tom’s awesome Twickenham Brewery tasting.</i><br />Many thanks to the Alvinne thanks for giving me a sizeable sample of this. Very dark brown with an excellent beige head. Awesome wood, chewy malt and fruity chocolate. The wooden sour notes work so well. The blend of oak aged and young stout is pretty much done to perfection. Superb length in the finish that is full of oak, malt and chocolate. A fantastic beer and something I have wanted to try for a long time. Thanks guys.

Jun 23, 2008 <i>Bottle at De Proefzolder, Heule, Belgium</i><br /> Hazy/clear deep caramel coloured body. Aroma of port, liquorice, liquor, alcohol, oak, sherry, port, liquorizia (Calabrian type of liquor), ... Moderately sweet flavour. Not very complex and balance is not totally perfect. Very ok, but not overwhelming.

Apr 19, 2008 (Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of yespr. Comes as "Alvinne Podge Oak Aged Stout" at 11% ABV. Clear, reddish brown with a dense, beige head leaving some lacework. Distinct oaky nose, some hard roasted malt and a light acidity. Medium-bodied, very lively, plenty of hard roasted malts, fruit and distinct oak notes. Lightly tart finish - mainly from the malt. Quite lovely but not that Stout-like really. 040408
