Thanks to Simon for the opportunity.
Haven’t really got a clue what was going on here. The beer opened with a mighty “pop” which sounded promising, but unfortunately that was the best of the experience.
Poured a dark brown, porter-like color which (at least from looks alone) reminded me somewhat of the Ommegang Chocolate Indulgance. Some decent head (for a few seconds) that fell away quickly to not much. A little lifeless.
Aroma was mildly rancid, with a lingering old socks note.
Drinkability was close to zero for me, with a combination of old farmhouse funk, but a rancidness that almost made me gag. It quite literally smelled very strongly of cheese – and not a good cheese either.
What the hell they were trying to achieve is beyond me.
