#YOLOmælk

Timid umami and/or smoke in the aroma. Medium-to-heavy body, bit dry and some bitterness in the mouthfeel. Flavor has pretty much only very roasted dark malts. Boozy. Bottle has fish aromas left but they do not carry on to the flavor.

Raspberry Rush

Quite juicy, but dryish raspberry aroma with faint whiff of coffee. Medium body, rather dry and somewhat sour mouthfeel. Consistently, the flavor has pleasant raspberry, that turns into somewhat nice coffee by way of some chocolate notes. Not bad.

Kriek 100% Lambic Bio (2019)

Sweet cherry in the aroma as expected. Light-to-medium body, bit sweet and rather sour, acidic mouthfeel. Unsurprisingly, flavor has also that cherry, but not necessarily as sweet as the aroma gives out. Feels like some tannins kick in.
