750. Pours deep cloudy rubied brown with a comically massive head--pouring this beer is an exercise in patient deliberation. Ratio of head to beer for the first five minutes is about 10:1. Skyscraper of sudsy, fluffy mouse and occasionally spotty lace above a shallow puddle of actual beer. "six aromatic hops" sounds like at least two marketing lies in one, if not three--the nose is fairly subdued, all things considered. Yeah, there’s spice and pepper and a bit of funk there, and it’s a great nose, but I wouldn’t exactly advance my hop bill as the preeminent differentiator with this beer (if there is one). Medium body, active carb, forward flavors; nice attack. Mid-palate is a bunch of funk and dark rummy tree fruit. Tingly coriander around the edges, and a slightly puckery, slightly spicy finish. Nice stuff but not the finest BdG on the market by any means.

very carbonated. dark tan color with big white head with lots of yeast "chunks" in it. aroma is mainly yeast with some spiciness and some other aroma I can’t tell. flavor is also very yeasty, mostly dry with some sourness. very little malt flavor. not too bad....for a very different style than I’m used to.

Bottle. A wee bit of a gusher. Pours a dark copper color with a HUGE chunky white head. Aroma of yeast, spices and some funkiness. Also notes of herbs and floral. Flavor is much the same. Dry and slightly sour. Some grassy notes and a little caramel malts. Not bad, but far from a favorite.

Robe ambrée voilée surmontée d’une mousse blanche mince. Arômes de citron et de malt acidulé. Saveurs de malt acidulé, de citron, de fraises, d’oranges et de sauge.

Murky copper color with a thick head. The aroma is dead to the world. Big flavors of wet horseblanket and spices. Much yeast. It’s not all bad.

Chunky, hazy, odd brown-grey color, huge head. Spice, quite sharp hops, long bitterness, quite strong. Dry metallic note causes discomfort. Super frothy palate is fun. Interesting but not satisfying to me and nowhere near worth the price (had I paid for it).

Opened when lightly chilled. The bottle exploded with carbonation and lots of escaping foam. Dry aroma of herbal hops, but it is quite nice. Dark brown color and lots of carbonation and a tall brown head. Some sweetness, but lots of herbal hops. Dry flavor and dry finish. Very expensive at $16.

cloudy white head and three inches of white head. Slighty sour with some wheat and yeast on the nose. Yeast body with some fruity taste.
