A reddish brown ale with a thin moka head. In aroma, a sweet herbal malt with spiced noted, phenolics, tracles, not bad. In mout, a light candy sugar with some notes of coriander, oil, treacle, warming alcohol, very smooth. This came in a serigraphied 500 ml bottle, from 2008. Tasted Dec. 19 2009.

09.12.31 Brown bottle Ruby almost brown and opaque. Aroma caramel licorice. Med to full in body. Alcool, caramel, raisin it’s rich and thick. It’s not too yeasty. It’s suprisingly smooth. Finish is sweet and medium long. Can exactly remember the taste of the other version but I Like this one better.

Bouteille de 500ml au prix de 7,99$ chez Grand Duc, bière brune avec des reflets rouges, nez de sucre, malt en poudre dans de l’eau, peu d’épices, bouche sucrée, alcool. Manque un petit quelque chose. ma 1800 bières.

Bouteille de 500 ml partagée lors d’une mini dégustation Ratebeer Montréal chez MartinT. Arôme: Odeur de diachilon avec uine pointe d’alcool. Apparence: La couleur est brune légèrement voilée. Présence d’un mince col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Léger goût fruité avec une pointe d’épices et d’alcool. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture légèrement huileuse. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. Légère présence d’épices en arrière goût. (Rating #2666)

My Bottom Line:
This quirky Belgian-style Strong Ale seems to aim for what the Trappists do with its rather lean body, complex fruitiness and cocoa-like roasted malts, but obvious fermentation issues make it veer towards medecinal territories quite fast.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A sheet of foam protects the cloudy dark brown.
-Although subtle, this strange yeast character (latex, band-aid heavy phenolics) tastes like an overworked strain.
-The fruitiness goes from cherry jam to dried figs.
-Alcohol is present, but not overwhelmingly so.
-Peppery notes are found near flowers.

Bottle.

Medium, light-cream head over hazy red-amber beer. Fruity, flowery, and AGAIN hibiscus flower; wet dog. Wet dog returning in the flavour, fruity, estery and finally alcohol - but 10% ABV??? In all tasters’ opinion, ridiculous. Gets sweeter by the minute. Strange. I think this (?) experimental version shows the yeast can’t cope - and I wonder about infection. Big thanks to CK!
