0,66l bottle at home shared by Sander, big thanks. BB 11/12/2012. Vintage 2012. black color, very small coffee colored head. smells earthy, bourbon, light vanilla, coconut, very light cherries, berrry notes, lightly boozy, sour cherries. very lovely smell. full body, almost no carbonation, slick mouthfeel. tastes of bourbon, cherry notes, fudgy, light vanilla, bitter chocolate, light boozy, sour cherries, light marzipan. finishes lightly dry with notes of cherries, bourbon and some bitter chocolate. very nice and present cherry notes works very well with the bourbon notes. Cherry notes could be actually a bit more subtle, but overall lovely.

#6000. Thanks! to Benzai. 650 ml. bottle sampled @ ZZT XIII. Deep black with a light Bordeaux hue & no head. Nose is sour red fruits, varnish, wood, barrel, molasses with sour fruit. Taste is molasses, sour red fruits, maple, mocha, light varnish barrel, chocolate,… Thick body. A tad too sour, possibly not at its prime, happy to have tried this one. It is still a very good beer, the others are just even better.

Bottle @ ZZT XII. Opaque black color, very small brown head that diminishes almost instantly. Aroma is malts, sweet, whiskey, wood. Taste malts, wood, whiskey, red fruits, a slight hint of red fruit tart in the aftertaste. Love the aroma but the flavor is too much fruit tart for me. Still nice though. Heavy but nice.

66cl bottle sample via trade with AdamJackson @ lucha libre night comes to LeRoeulx. Anno 2012. De couleur brune foncée, col fin blanc-cassé, léger doré au verre. Arôme est malté avec un bouquet de cerise qui reste très présent et fort prenant. Cela est en parfaite harmonie avec le bouquet chocolaté de cette bière. Palais offre une belle complexité de la cerise qui reste profonde avec une petite touche surette. Le tout est en balance avec un profil malté conséquent qui donne un caractère plein de chocolat et de malts grillés. Pointe de chaleur se dégageant des 13% de cette bière et une petite touche épicée de seigle. Comme souvent avec ces séries de BCS, on n’est rarement déçu.

Sample at the Bourbon County tasting, De Molen. Poured a deep mahogany witn a round bubbly tan head. The aroma is rich roasty, alcohol bitter, red berry fruit. The flavour is moderate acid sour light sweet with a rich cherry malt yeast acid palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.
