75cl, at 7%Vol, as Archiduc, exclusive brew, from De Hopduvel Gent, not complex brew, malty and spicy, easy to drink, yet balanced, clear, nearly no head, nice brew

Bottle. Pours amber with a white head. Fresh grape, dark malt, and red orange in aroma. Tastes almost the same. Add some burned caramel. The taste is kind of short. It has the light qualities that all beers from this brewer seems to have, which adds some drinkability. Smooth. Lively carbonation.

Bottle. Sort of american strong ale maltyness acompanied by oranges, red berries and green grapes. A bit too thin for the amount of flavour, the taste ends to quickly.

Small dirty-beige head over red-brown hazy beer. Leafy-earthy nose, not rich but complex; autumn leaves and chestnuts. Some hidden, but very noble and enriching hops. Earthy again, brown leaves, soyamilk, and again "dark" hosp. Medium bodied, medium carbonated, but refreshing and giving a ’nourishing’ impression. Authentic recipe or not, again a masterpiece by the Jandrain-Jandrenouille gang. Probably the best new Walloon brewer.
