Caulier Bon Secours Ambrée

bottle, traded with Kölschtriker or DerDoppelbock, I forgot to make a note of it. Thank you anyway. Hazy golden colour with an amber glow, large off-white head. Aroma of (very) sweaty feet and some sourness. Oh dear. This one smelled as if it had turned sour, but not!The beer itself was ok. Full-bodied, very malty with nice flavours of roasted malts, caramel and toffee with a shy touch of fruit. Lingering finish, where a hoppy touch tunes in. I think I’ve never had a beer with such a discrepany between aroma and flavour. I nearly poured it into the drain because of its awful nose.

The bottle made a big POUFF when open, and pours a hazy gold amber with a very thick white foam head. Aroma is floral with some sweet malts. Flavors are a little malty with some caramel and peach and apple fruits. A bitter sweet finish. A great ballance of flavore and very pleasant to drink.

Bottled deom Carrefour in Liege. Very dark amber color with thick foamy head and nicely layered lacing ! Visual is perfect. Nose taste like caramel. Aroma is spicy and some hops covered by caramel and candi sugar. Flavour is hoppy followed by intense bitters. Very complex nice beer!

Appearance: Pours classic, orangy - yellowish amber body colour, body is cloudy, highly saturated, indeed very lively carbonation, head is thick, compact, very frothy, cloudy in shape, very fluffy, off white, milky or butter like in colour, perfect lacing with slowly colapsing head.
Aroma: Very complex and nice aroma, at front you can feel spicyness and aromatic flowery hoppy profile, some oilyness characteristic for Abby Tripels, what is more nice scents of dark chockolate and bitter cacao what is quite surprising for a Pale Belgian Ale, at least for me. Nice notes of wheat, graphite, whipped cream, milk, butter, butterscotch, barley malt, dust and pepper, pineapple, yeast, stale coffee beans or stale wheat grains being slightly toasted.
Flavour: Very comfortably hopped, quite strong bitterness coming from hops in the middle part of the tongue, nice spicy - fruity - flowery hoppy kick in nose, very clean and well balanced flavour, wheat, fresh, mashed barley grains, pineapple, lime, banana, clove, pepper, very spicy, moderate to strongly alcoholic but giving a positive character, toasty, very long finish, notes of coffee, dark - chockolate, cacao.
Palate: Body is full, texture is oily to dry, carbonation on palate is lively, finish feel is highly bitter, clean, yeasty, astringent, strong alcoholic but positive finish.

A hazy golden amber ale with a super thick creamy off white head. Aroma of sour cherries and tannins, light acidity, and caramel. In mouth, a good herbal malt with sustained coriander, some tartness, yeast. Medium bodied. Bieropholie import BB 09-09.

Slightly sour and oaky aroma. Lasting sweetness and hints of raspberry. Not worth repeating.

It’s slightly hazy orange-golden with a huge, creamy head. The aroma has sweetness and notes of candy sugar, raisin and malt. The flavour has sweetness, notes of raisin, alcohol, candy sugar, caramel and light dark fruit. The alcohol is rather crude.
