So Ektar: BB was 2021/12/14. Caramelly, honey-like notes and orange = honestly, it strongly reminds me of the taste of #Picon! 🤣
So Ektar is drinking a Hokum Stomp by DEYA Brewing Company at Untappd at Home
Roasted grain on the nose, hint of coffee. Deep brown hue, not fully opaque, slow dissipating beige head, vivid carbo. Taste on roasted malts, evocative of dark, bitter chocolate, espresso. Medium finish, bit watery, lengthy aftertaste on caramelly notes.

So Ektar is drinking a PATRONS PROJECT 11.03 // LORD WHITNEY // LORD OF MISRULE // OAT WINE by Northern Monk at Untappd at Home
Candied orange peel, spiced liquor smell. Dark, troubled orange, quite sirupy, very soft carbo. Slight citrusy sourness, very quickly overcome by sweet, spicy maltiness. Cinnamon+candied orange peel mix wonderfully. Lengthy aftertaste on Christmas notes.

So Ektar is drinking a Tales From the Future by Cloudwater Brew Co. at Untappd at Home
Very fruity, honey-like smell. Clear golden hue, disappearing white head, very fine carbo. Mix of tropical/stone fruits on the tongue, almost like sweet white wine yet citrusy gentle tartness. Short, quaffable finish. Rose, minerality, light spices after

So Ektar: The funk is quite discreet - a few notes of straw, dry herbs, almost green tea-like. The season's markers are also a bit timid, except in the finish, where light pepper and bitterness are found at higher temperature, when the rose isn't outshining them.
Gau Mansfield: Cheers, S! Glad to see you open a CW this evening. I must say you have a talent for reviewing beer and no mistake! Can’t say I’ve had this one yet but I’ll be on the look out. Sounds great! 🍻
So Ektar: Gau M. Thanks a lot for the kind words and happy new year! I like treating Untappd as my little database. The bottle is quite nice, but it has been harder to find CW on the continent after the Brexit.
Little night dessert treat!
