fantti (1229) - FINLAND - OCT 15, 2021UPDATED: OCT 15, 2021 Pullo @ Alko. Kaatuu tulppaaniin hyvin tummanpunaisena, noin 2 sormen paksuisella vaahdolla. Tuoksussa on vahvimpana marjaisuutta ja rusinoita, ehkä luumuakin. Sokerista hedelmää tai viinikumia on myös melko paljon. Maku jatkaa samalla linjalla, marjaa ja rusinaa, luumua ja muutakin hedelmää löytyy, makeutta on hieman sokerisena mukana. Suutuntuma on hyvin hiilihappoinen, makeahko ja alkoholin lämmittävä vaikutus tuntuu myös. Hieman pliisuksi ja yksiulotteiseksi, hedelmää löytyy, mutta hieman syvyyttä tämä kaipaisi.
Fin (15185) - Attenkirchen, Bavaria, GERMANY - OCT 15, 2021UPDATED: OCT 15, 2021 Bottle picked up from Thornbridge Taproom, Bakewell, Derbyshire and consumed at Jude and Bazs listening to Patrice Bäumel - Speicher 89, we had Feta, Tomato and Gnocchi tray bake, Thursday 14th October 2021. Pours hazy brown with an off-white head, plums, figs, Christmas cake, nutty with almonds. This is lovely. It's warming, a hint of spice but the softness on the tongue, huge drinkability for such an ABC, mark this out as a great beer.
