Commercial Description:
Bloed, Zweet & Tranen, brewed by accident with malt from the Bruichladdich distillery, instead of the usual peated malt. Single batch only. NOTE: Beware, the bottle does not indicate whether it’s the regular BZT or the Bruichladdich. So the only way to know this is if the one who bought it was told it’s the Bruichladdich.

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Pours a slightly hazy reddish brown with a tall, dense and stable light brown head leaving some laces. Very smoky aroma of tar and salty ropes. Medium body with hard roasted malts, very smoky whisky accents and a fairly bitter finish. Very interesting. 210309

75 cL bottle. Pours dark brown, hazy, and with a small tan head. Solid smoked and peaty aroma. Leathery. Mild sweetness initially with a nice roasted caramel malt flavour then taken over by a solid smoked flavour into a dry and dense smoked finish. Lovely!

Draught at Stockholm Beer Festival. Black, creamy head. Peaty whisky aroma. Sweet with clean mouthfeel. Sugar mixed with Highland whisky. Some coffee, but most gets lost amongst whisky and sugar. Warming and filling, but in the end more inteesting than good.

Draught @ Brouwerij de Molen, Overtocht 43, Bodegraven, 2411 BT Netherlands.
Unclear medium to dark brown color with a large, creamy, good lacing, fully lasting, beige head. Aroma is heavy malty, roasted, burnt, caramel, smoked. Flavor is heavy sweet and moderate to heavy bitter with a long duration, and a dry dry finish. Body is medium to full, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. This how a smoked beer has to be prepared, well done Menno ;o)) [20090226]

Bottle at Alvinne pre-ZBF09. Distinct smoky aroma, hint of charcoal. Almost black colour. Very small head. Nicely smoky flavour, some campfire. Slightly sweet with a hint of coffee. Long, late roast coffee aftertaste.

Draught@SBWF2009. Pitch black colour, mediumsized beige foamy head. Aroma is liquorice, mild peat, quite leathery as well as mild dark fruity notes. Flavour is caramel malts, wood, some roasted malts, ashy as well as peaty. Ashy aftertaste. Wellbalanced and pleasant.

Thanks to fonefan and charlotte for this bottle! Dark brown. Rich impy aroma, more chewy stinging malts, dense chocolates and a some smoke and darker fruits. Somewhat thin and tart in the body, though with light roast and fruits, maybe a hint of smoke. Roasty and light smoke finish amid lots of tartness. This beer should have more staying power, but appears on the way out due to tartness.
