Bottle at post Borefts BF 09 tasting. Red amber, thin beige head. Sweet amber malt in aroma, not sure I like the oak in it. Too woody for me. bit too oaky, sweet, some hop on end.

Botella. Barbie beer, good one Gitte :-) Clear red-brown colour. Pleasant roasty malty and caramel vinious aroma. Good mouthfeel. The flavour is quite sweet , but also quite pleasant, with a deep maltiness, caramel, dark fruits, some chocolate and bitter hops.

Bottle, bought @ De Molen. Dark brown color. Caramelaroma, nutty with hints of oak and toffee. Sweet but alcoholic flavor, nutty with dried fruit, hints of oak and french nougat. Oak and hazelnut and toffee dessert in the aftertaste. Well made beer, not without complexity.

A Mes rate. Bottle at Borefts 10am day after hotel tasting.
Amber colour with a very slight haze and a good off white head. Sweet caramel with some nice roast and smoky notes. Plenty of oak, some vanilla and burnt sugar. Late hops calm it down a little. Plenty of heat. A little too sweet overall. Not the best from ST but still a good beer.
