Bov (7354) - Bienne, - MAR 15, 2005
wrapped in paper, brewed for the pub Woodstock in Milano - cloudy copper colour, nice creamy head, caramel and butter in the nose, notes candi sugar, very sweet, medium to full-bodied, long aftertaste of caramel with a lingering sweetness - somehow manages to be very sweet without beeing cloying; a perfect dessert beer - thanks to fiulijn for the beer

From backlog @ Biercentral

Head: foamy, off white, large
Colur: ambery gold, bit hazy
Smell: honey, sweet, flowers, booze, sweet corn, malts
Taste: along the line of the aroma, i quite like this one actually sweet but not too sweet with a typical belgian malt flavour and yeastyness for the bitterness level , bit boozey tough ...

Accusata perchè troppo dolce? Non fa assolutamente niente. Certo se vi piacciono SOLO le IPA o le birre che usano la lingua come sacco per pugili girate a largo. Se invece vi piace variare risulterà una buona birra, mai stucchevole. Molto forte il gusto di miele, alla fine lo zucchero di canna uscira fuori gia bello e vestito. Floreale. Con i dessert intavola dialoghi di buon gusto. A mio parere molto sottovalutata su questo sito.

Incredibly, disgustingly sweet. Flowery aroma and its golden appearance are not a put-off, but the honey, brown sugar most definitely are.

TBone (9414) - Pori, FINLAND - JAN 18, 2012
Bottled 330ml (BZ, BB 09/2013)
Deep orange-amber color, small steady off-white creamy head. Fruity Belgian yeasty aroma with hints of coriander. Medium-bodied. Quite sweet, lots of kandi sugar, sweet honeyish notes, then orange peels, yeast and some alcohol in the finish. Lingering sweet herbal aftertaste. Too sweet for my liking.

sinte (184) - udine, ITALY - JAN 4, 2012
Bottle 0.33 L. Cloudy dark golden body with an average, creamy, off-white head, mostly lasting with a good lacing; high density of tiny particles. Heavy honey aroma with notes of sugar and maple syrup; malty (biscuit) and hoppy (Sweet flowers) characters are also present. Heavy sweet flavour lightly balanced by an acidic note in the long-lasting finish. Medium body with a creamy texture; lively carbonation. Really a sweet beer, ideal with desserts I’d say, like apple strudel.
