33 cl. can @ home, bought @ Edrink, Eindhoven. Clear old yellow with a white head. Malty aroma with some white wine and cognac. Sweet taste with a semi-dry vinous finish. Light sour touch as well. Nice one.

Dark orange colour, bit of creamy foam. Smells sweet, grapey. Pretty thick and chunky. Pretty boozy. Taste is highly sweet, lots of white wine there, some wood, some grapes. Caramelly too, giving it more sweetness. Not that good a saison. Too sweet for me

Tap @ Borefts. Amber color. Marzipan and white wine in the aroma. Malty sweet, vinous flavor with marzipan and oak. Not the best of the Barrel aged series.

Can. Golden orange pour. Aroma of buttery caramel, vanilla, white grape and yeast. Taste of buttery caramel, funk, vanilla, yeast ester, oak, white grape and a little tart. Seems infected, but I kinda like the butter flavor.

Can. Color: Orangish amber, off-white head. Aroma: Saison yeast, grapes, boozy hints. Taste: Malt, Saison yeast, funky notes, medium to over medium sweet with herbal and floral notes. Some caramel. Oak, dry-ish mouthfeel. Fruity white wine notes, getting a bit boozy towards and at het finish. Moderate bitterness. Medium body, below average carbonation. Pretty nice, nice surprise after a lot of Barley Wines and Stouts in this Barrel Project series.
