33cl bottle picked up at the brewery on the day before the open doors. pours a lightly carbonated medium-brown. aroma is ginger, spice, some caramel and sour fruit. body is light/medium, flavor is a malty complexity up front that fades into a mildly sour finish that has a bit of residual sugar but not too much. more caramel in the flavor, joined by cherries, tart and inviting. this is really, really good, especially for the 5.2%, and I’m sort of upset with myself for not sticking around Heule the next day.

A very nice beer i could taste on bottle at beerfestival at Zottegem. Nice tasting and for 5.2 percent alcohol very nice

Bottle: Poured a dark chocolate color brown with a bubbly head. Old very lucent aroma musty and malt. The taste has that burnt rich sour malt but also leaves a tingle on the tongue and finishes sweet. Talked to the brewers at Bier Happenings fest in Zottemgen and they said this will not be brewed again. I recomment grabbing a 75cl bottle when you see it.

On tap, yesterday @ the brewery. Dark red-brown, medium beige head. Aroma malts, fruity. Medium body. Taste is little fruity, maltsbitterness, and sweet. A light brown good drinkable.
