The colour is amber. Aroma is of bourbon, fruit, and apples, a bit of hops too. The flavor is full of bourbon, with a sweet finish full of fruit.

(On tap) Slightly hazy amber golden with a basically absent head. Aroma of caramel and overripe fruit. Surprisingly only medium-bodied, some fruit and an underlying acidity. Subdued bitterness. Unusual. 130908

On tap at EBF 08. Hazy chestnut. Again a bit uncultured. Strong. Some tangerine. Not great.

EBF2008. It’s a beautiful, red bronze color and the aroma has notes of grapes. Wood and cumquat. The flavour has notes of wood, grapes, cumquat, lime and a hint of dry tannic acid. I would like a bit more malt, but it’s refreshing and different.

On tap @ EBF 08. Semi clear and amber coloured with a small head. Malty with notes of fruit, berries, caramel, spices and hops.

Draught, 100ml at EBF 08. White head over an amber-copper coloured body. Brandy-like smell with cherries. Lots of dark and dried fruits in flavour with a spicy support. Soft carbonation, but still quite dry in the mouth. Mostly hidden alcohol. Rather heavy to drink (14.09.2008).
