2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle bought at the De Molen beer shop in Bodegraven. This beer sprayed from the bottle and covered my kitchen sink. I did how ever manage to save some in a glass. Chocolaty and lightly sourish smell. High amount of carbonation. Chocolaty malty taste, some yeast and alcoholic aftertaste.
4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. Split with Boston and Simon. Pour is dark, deep, brown with huge three finger creamy head. Lacing retention is always great with De Molen... multiple rings around the glass. Aromas is so floral and hoppy for a 9.99% alc stout. Mostly notes of espresso, chocolate, flowers. Taste is belgian quad flavors with honey mead, bread, anise, cocoa powder, and belgian yeast. Amazing beer that combined a complex belgian strong with a rich creamy stout. Finishes very smooth with barely any detectable booze for the amount of alcohol. Prefer this out of the bottle compared to the draft I had New Years day at Monks.
