Bottle, at ZBF 2006. Hazy amber, thin off white head and gentle condition. Gentle figgy fruit in the nose, more fruit in the mouth and a gentle chocolate note, low powdery bitterness lingerining in the finish.

Bottle shared at DHL during Paul’s Pre-Wedding Beer Weekend. Pours cloudy auburn with a dense, foamy head. Fresh, piney and lightly yeasty aroma. Medium to big sweet flavor with toasted sugar, light caramel, bubblegum, spices, and very mild fruity tang. Medium to full bodied with average carbonation. Mildly warming to finish with sweet and toasty malts tinged with caramel, pine, some candi sugar, mild citrus. Dries out nicely with some sweet, toasty grassiness, mild yeast and dark, toasty candi sugar. Very good. Strong yet still highly drinkable.

33cl, exclusive brew, from De Heeren van Liedekercke Denderleeuw, complex brew, malty/sweet and slightly fruity/vinous, very balanced, hazy, good head, good brew

Chunky mahogany colored pour. Big off-white, almost tan, head. Big lacing as it slowly dies down. Perfumy rose aroma mixed with malt. Some corn in there as well. Peppery corn malt flavor. Not good. Finishes as bad as it tastes.

Bottle, 75cl corked, at De Heeren van Liedekercke. It’s an unclear, brown beer topped by a dense, finger-thick, off-white to beige head leaving lacings. Cellar, prune notes, hints of chocolate and Belgian yeast as well as some caramel on the nose. The flavor is sweet, with chocolate and caramel hints, prunes and a fine hoppyness giving some bitterness. Full body, smooth and nicely carbonated. Mostly sweet in the end, but with bitterness trying to bring balance. A really pleasant one. 110501

Bottle. Pours a nice dark copper color with a frothy eggshell colored head. Aroma is of banana, lighter fruits, spice like allspice, pepper and coriander, along with some honey notes. The flavor is again of spice notes like coriander, clove and pepper, along with the lighter fruits and banana, along honey, caramel and some breadiness. The body is light to medium with a chalky and dry mouthfeel. Overall a pretty solid Belgian Strong Dark Ale, I would love to go visit the Heeren van Liederkercke resturant sometime.

750 ml bottle @ Heeren van Liederkercke. Amber body with a fine off-white head. Aroma is malt, spices, burnt sugar and asparagus. Flavor is sweet and sour, malt, karamel, pepper, bitter and light oxidation. Medium body. A bit unusually and might be over the top, but otherwise quite OK.
