Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a small off-white head. The aroma has notes of malt, brett, and a bit of bourbon. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, wood, brett, and bourbon. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Golden-bronze colour. Oaky, caramelly, complex...a knock out. Sweet, oaky, balanced. Nice alcoholic signature. Full value.

<i>Tasting at Papsoe</i>
Hazy amber color; small head. Very nice aroma, woody with some vanilla and light fruity sourness, dynamic, interesting. Medium body, some malt flavor, medium sweetness, light grape fruitness and delicate vanilla. Correct bitterness. A bit chalky at the end. Chaotic but also interesting.
