The smel of roasted mout is overwhelming. The taste is like coffee and can be compared with older beers. For me a suprise

75 cL bottle. Pours hazy dark amber with a lacing off-white head. Dense fruity and herbal aroma with yeasty and malty notes. Slight chemical and spiced flavour with a mild caramel and slight chocolate malty smoothness. Mild spiced and yeasty finish.

Clear amber of color with a beige head. An aroma herbs, spice and sweets. A flavor of spice, bitter and dry.

33cl, exclusive brewery, from De Hopduvel Gent, complex brew, not balanced, hazy, good head, nice brew

Bottled (apparently a forgotten pearl of the stuff I bought from Willems in 2007). Deep ambery brown colour with mediumsized beige head, that leaves lace. Aroma is slightly roasted malts, some spices and also a bit herbal notes. Flavour is roasted malts, caramel malts and quite herbal too. Also some slight yeasty notes. Quite watery palate.

Hazy brown color. This bottle (from Delirium Café in Bruxelles) is infected. An ordinary beer, with some sweetish caramel flavor and low bitterness, and a touch of roasted malt. Unfortunately, loaded with chemicals.

Bottled
Dark muddy brown, tan creamy head. Lots of floating yeast. Coffee, rye bread and glue aroma. Palate is sourish and dry. Rye bread, licorice and notes of oxidation, like in a vintage bottle. Glue-like notes in the flavor are not very enjoyable - propably should dry to sample without yeast.
