I love this beer. It has a quite destinctive taste. Appearance is a little off...

Cloudy orange-brown color, no lasting head. Malty amber aroma. Tastes like the Caracole Ambree, but a bit weaker, and less balanced. But certainly worth a try.

UPDATED: APR 4, 2005 Bottle: Malty, raisinny aroma. Sweet, malty taste with caramel, raisin and mango. Slight alcohol burn. Not bad, straightforward beer, a little too sweet. Tap, Café de Engel Oldenzaal. This beer normally isn’t available on tap, but it should be because it suits the beer well. A bit of malty sweetness. Very malty in fact. Full bodied. Some hopbitterness that coïncides well with the malt and adds some extra depth. 6 3 8 4 13 = 3.4. The above rating is for the bottled version, because that is the normally available version.

Fruity, peach and grapes aroma. Dark golden colour, nice lace. Sweet, full, fruity. Long sweet lightly hopped finish.
