Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
strong and burns a wee bit but you do feel there's something old-school in there, especially touches of smoke beyond the expected pastries, banana cake, cornflakes, popcorn... With water: I find it very fermentary, bready and beery once water's been added, you could almost find notes of sake. Well, I do. Classic sponge cake and madeleines in the background. Did we say classic?
restaurant Palate
some heat, some cider apples, some lemon and a feeling of Damson eau-de-vie as it runs from the still, including these bitter almonds. Tough guy when neat. With water: very good, pretty tight, with more fruits, especially apples and grapefruits, as well as Belgian gueuze. Aren't all gueuzes Belgian anyway? Not too sure, I know next to nothing about beers
timer Finish
medium, very barley-y, on more cakes and some obvious strong green tea. I'm thinking of 'Gunpowder'. Banana skin
