Cloudy brown color. Mild brett and roasted malt aroma. Good, thick palate. Some malt, and lightly sour. This is probably more of a saison or bier de garde than Belgian Strong, the ABV is too low, and there is too much wild yeast. Or maybe a dubbel.

Courtesy of Stine. Murky copper color with a medium head. Aroma of tobacco and oak. Dry and rich malt taste, rounded out by some nuttiness. The sweet orange peel did not register, but the cinnamon provided some background spiciness.

Bottle. Brown-gold pour with a big white head. Cloudy and leaving amazing lacing. Pungent sharp sourness with cinnamon behind it. Opens with cinnamon into big barnyard-earthy funk. Finishes with deep bitter dark chocolate. Full-bodied and highly drinkable. The chocolate in the finish is a perfect contrast to the sourness. Masterfully-balanced like so many JP offerings.

Bottle. Batch 253. Copper beer with a tan head. Cocoa, caramel, cinnamon/spice aroma with light citrus and light tartness. Tart, light citrus flavor with caramel turning to spice, malt, and some light stone fruit. Medium body. Spice, cinnamon and nutmeg linger with malt and tartness.

Bottle (Thanks Puzzl) at Sune’s sommerhus. Murkey red/brown - offwhite head. Red berries, fruity, spicy, orange, light cinnamon, cherry, dry cocoa, light soapy, light oud bruin - caracters. Nice complexity.
