Commercial Description:
This beer, robust in taste and strength (9%) is the tops for flavour. It has a fruity and spicy bouquet, it has a stark taste, between a sharp bitterness and a caramelised flavour. It has no sugar, and this pure malt beer oscillates between various tendencies which all round off the bitterness. It has a peppery taste at the back of the mouth and a sharpness on the tongue. It is active in the mouth and lets each flavour express itself individually. It is very active in the glass which gives it a full, lasting, head. It has a long conclusion and puts emphasis on an ever present bitterness but less supported by the caramel. The final impression is one of gingerbread without sugar.

Pours a hazy orange brown with a nice thick tan head. Aroma is sweet and fruitfull with a floral fragance. Flavors are caramel and dry fruits and a little sour. A very nice and pleasant beer, easy to drink.

Glowing amber-brown with tons of floaties. Big, fragrant, sweet and fruity aroma with caramel and honey and a slight tart edge. Rich, smooth honey-like flavor, with deep caramel, spices, and lots of dark fruits. Rather sweet for me, but rich and complex malt, balanced by alcohol. Nice but not one of their best.

Dégusté avec french tickler le 7 avril 2007. Murky caramel poor with lots of sediments and a nice frothy off-white head. Aromas of allspice, caramel, alcohol, vanilla, peaches and brown sugar. Incredibly long bitterness, fantastic balance with its sweetness and bitterness. You can definitely feel the alcohol. First impression is its sweetness. Up to par with THE abbaye des rocs.

330 ml bottle. Hazy, reddish, golden body with floaters and a dense, lasting off-white head. Aroma of tea, demara sugar, fruit and alcohol. Flavor is very sweet, malt, spices and alcohol. This beer is actually disgustingly sweet, but somehow balanced by alcohol in a challengingly way. I’m not offended by not totally happy, can’t say I dislike it either.

Bottle, pours deep cloudy orange/brown with a medium white head. Aromas of hops, pine, orange and yeast. Creamy mouth brings a sweet and sour flavor of orange juice, ends dry with a lingering fresh hop finish. Very drinkable.
