Looks like a tasty line up!

 

[Malted]

At 8.7% Alc/vol it's not much like regular Hoegaarden! Went down a treat.



Didn't quite meet my expectations regards the blurb on the bottle but was very nice none the less. Even SWMBO's mega swill father liked it.

I found the Grand Cru to be a delicious drink.

Just had a Rogue Ale Brutal IPA. Couldn't shake the thought that it tasted like an extra bitter Dr Smurto GA we made. So easy to drink, so delicious.

Downing a Mikkeller Warrior IPA. Malt aroma is dominates. Hop flavour subtle amongst chewy malt. Smooth bitter finish.

Overall I don't mind it; but i don't think there is anything here to set it apart from anything else. Although I understand that's not the point of these single hoppers; as a "hop smell/taste test" it does the job well!

Quite an interesting beer, I can taste some sake. It's a little spicey and although not overly bitter, the bitterness is a little harsh and quite a piney something going on after the bitterness goes, also quite light in body but still full (if that makes any sense). I can swear there's some Brett in there, only ever slightly so. I'd buy it again just cause it's so interesting & I have made up my mind as to wether I like it or not yet

Just made my way through a bottle of Mikkeller Big Worst Bourbon edition. This is a big beer. Aroma would make you think you're about to drink a glass of liquid vegemite whilst the flavour is a combination of alcoholic warmth and bourbon sweetness. I really enjoyed this beer. I shame it's difficult to have more than one when it sits at 19.1% ABV.

May I ask where you sourced these babies from ??
Do you have a quality bottle shop nearby or were these mail order ?

Is that the one where they use red rice as part of the grist?

 

[Pennywise]

I've no idea Dave, wouldn't surprise me as the body was quite thin. I know they mature it in sake barrels, & apparenty those barrels were once whiskey barrels. They use Chinook & Styrian Goldings and I reckon both quite late in the boil as the pine really comes out.

 

[lukiep8]

They used the Red Rice in the Hitachino Red Rice Ale, unless they used some in this too, and didn't mention it?

Thanks Chris, you are lucky to have such a good bottle'o near you !

Wasn't always that way.
Don't know what spured the owner ( Steve Kons, ex Deputy Premier of Tas and former Mayor of Burnie) to stock a growing list of imported beers but I am very happy.

No affiliations etc

Bit of reading tells me this is prolly not correct.

 

[Paleman]

Drinking one of these. Was recommended by the bottle shop attendant when looking for a Duvel.

Not sure what to think. Is it good or crap, my brain cant decide. For the price i paid for one 330ml bottle, it should be nectar. I dont think it is.

Anyone else tried it ? Supposed to be tripple fermented with three different yeasts.

Delirium tremens.
