Bottle @ Mikkeller Bar Aarhus. 2009 vintage. Cork is lightly moldy with some sugary leftovers. Pours hazy dark orange with a small fizzy white head. Aroma is citrussy, grapefruit soda, some moldy and funky flavours, but overall a very sugary nose with subtle citrus and green apples. Taste is very sweet and sugary. Minimal funk, light barnyardy nose, sweet green apples and grapefruit. The sweetness is really overpowering. I’ll never really enjoy faro that much.

Bottle. Great aroma of mix of light sourness and sugar. Smells like butter popcorn too. Taste is good, sweetness bit more there than in aroma. Good stuff though. Not much sourness but just a hint. Finish is brown sugar.

Corked bottle, jan ’09. Amber color. Oak, lemon, caramel and honey in the aroma. Sweet and sour flavor. lemon, toffee, oak. A somewhat messy heap of flavors and aromas. Too sweet for me, but a very interesting beer.

On tap at Weekend der Spontane Gisting, Opstal, Belgium. Shared with lovely Anja. Cloudy dark dirty golden, minimal head. Barrel on the nose, yeasty, whiskey-like fruitiness, funky. Aromas turning to barnyard, smoky phenols. Taste is wild, lots of barnyard and funk, overripe fruit, very sharp, settling down to wonderful toasted malts. Light acidity, tart, astringent finish. Medium body. Very nice, rich and complex.

Dark golden colour with no head. Aroma and flavour have typical woody dryness and a light acidity balanced out with a sweeter note.

05-11-18 // 750ml bottle shared. Dusty looking bottle, might be even as old as the label suggest. Clear dark golden. White head. Lovely geuze like nose. Then a heavy candi and caramelized sugar. Weird and lovely both because its so different. Very hard to find a suitable rating without taking in consideration that this style is supposed to taste like this.
