14/V/2012 - 33cl bottle, 8.5% ABV from Geers (Oostakker) @ home - BB: XI/12 (2012-498)

Clear dark brown beer, big creamy light beige to yellowish head, stable and adhesive. Aroma: very fruity, little grassy, metallic, brown sugar, some caramel, citrus fruits. MF: good carbon, medium body. Taste: lots of banana, caramel, some chocolate, mocha, little hoppy, fruity. Aftertaste: more banana, lots of chocolate, bit hoppy, mocha, soapy and bitter ending. Alcohol is warming the throat.

Bottle from Belgisk Bryg. Hazy brown colour with a beige head. Aroma and flavour of spice, fruit, caramel, malt and yeast.

33cl bottle, BB dec 2010. Ambrée, col léger beige. Bière au profile de malt cara, note renfermée de levure avec une profile mi-doux sucré et candi, alcool est réchauffant et en retrait une pointe d’épice agrémente la dégustation. Malt quant à lui conserve une certaine épaisseur de corps avec une pointe d’aigreur fruitée allant vers le raisin. Houblon est discret et confère un peu d’amertume.

(aged bottle, 33cl) Hazy, amber, almost copper colour with a dense and tanned foamy head. Mildly yeasty and vinous fruity aroma with notes of plums and raisins, backed by slightly sweet cara-malt and delicately spicy notes. Moderately sweet and slightly sour flavour, medium bodied with a well-carbonated mouthfeel. Cara-malty, slightly bready and distinctively dried fruity taste with a mildly vinous character; mildly sweet and sour fruity finish with the alcohol well-hidden. Pleasant brew. 05.VI.11

A 2005 bottle. Brown cloudy beer. Aged malt chocolatey caramel. Reasonable carbonation. Underlying minerals. Okay - probably past it’s best!

Bottle (33 cl) from Etre Gourmet. Dark reddish brown, medium beige head. Nutty malt aroma with some chocolate, and phenolic notes. Fairly dry, medium bitterness. Quite OK.

First rating with phone. Hope this ratebeer app works. Brown coloured beer with a medium head that don’t hold long enough. Smell is alcohol, spices, yeast and red fruits. Taste is dry, fruits comes through, some earthy spices, not really my thing due the dry bitterness that stay for a long time.
