Bottle (750ml). Shared by jerc with the gang. Clear leggy gold, no real head. Spicy baked apple aroma, on the tart side with background brown sugar. Taste - very tart, nice and slick, nice little burn going down though, made it seem almost peppery - simple, medium thick bodied, no aftertaste - decent.

Bottle, shared at Paul’s BBQ ’08, thanks to Jerc and Mabel. Very apply nose. Golden pour, not much head. Taste is apply as well, very tart. Simple, not complex at all, but tasty.

[1566-20080802] 750mL bottle. Old apples and wood barrel aroma. Clear, light yellow body with no head. Boozy apple skins flavour is not sweet initially but kicks in a bit later. Light-medium body. Average, was not enamoured with it as the rest of the crew.

Bottle (750ml) shared with the gang at the annual ’Bazinet BBQ’ -- courtesy of jerc. Pours a clear gold with a small white head. Nice aroma of apples, wood, white pepper, other spices and rum. Sweet flavour follows the aroma but has a little more alcohol then I would like, still nice though. Medium bodied. Pretty good stuff.

2008-08-02. Crisp golden yellow body. (3+) Sweet tart aroma, apples, touch of wood notes? Sweet flavour in the middle, light boozey touches hints at something more complex like a cognac or an apple liquer. (After the fact observation - apparently its aged in rum barrels, so that must have been it.) (7+) Smooth average to medium palate. Pretty good, may have actually lost a point or two for sake of following a lovely glass of St. Bernardus 12. Bottle via trade with mgermani
