COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
It is copper, with a toffee-malt taste. A subtle fruitiness, relatively firm body, and alcohol give it almost the impression of a strong ale spiked with apple brandy.

Note: No longer made (since 1999 or so) by De Dolle. Current versions are made by Strubbe (the brown ale, reportedly the same as Ichtegem's) and Bavik (the blonde, reportedly the Petrus Triple).
