Commercial Description:
Has a very distinctive bouquet: yeasty, fruity and slightly smoky. In palate, it has notes of port, raisins and black chocolate. Editor's note: Apparently production has moved from Van Steenberge to du Bocq as of Sept 2007.

Pours a sad cola brown with a fizz. Not a head, a fizz. It was gone within 20 seconds, leaving a flat liquid. The carbonation is low enough in this brew that it leaves me wondering if it did in fact come from Belgium. The aroma has notes of a typical Belgian brown ale, but is slightly more metallic. It has a wonderful flavor - much like one of the greats (Nostradamus)... but there’s not enough of it. It’s weak at first, and it just dies - no aftertaste. This was disappointing.

Pours a deep dark mahogany with a large creamy beige head. Taste is rich with roasted malts and toffee flavors and a subtle coffee undertone. Tastey, very pleasent. Aroma is nutty, noticeable oak with a soft hint of smoke.

Bottle. A little bit of an dry red wine, moderate malty, later on light yeasty. A vey large creamy off-white head, which is long lasting; a dark red body. The taste is light bitter with a medium duration. A creamy and sparkling texture with a rather lively carbonation and a medium body. A very nice beer!

Very nice look to it. Normal brown ale aroma with a hint of chocolate. Taste is very comparable to New Castle with a little bit more body.

Murky brown. Dry smell with an earthy quality to it. The flavor has some of the earthy/smoky quality to it I associate with a farmhouse saison. A little hint of chocolate or toffee in the finish. Very dry, but still a nice body.

35,5cl bottle from Vinmonopolet. It poured a red-brown colour with a big beige head that settled down fast in the glass. It has a fruity flavour that smells of raisins and yeast. The flavour is slightly bitter and tastes of raisins, malts and a hint of coffee. It has a short aftertaste.
