Pours a dark brown, almost black colour with a foamy, natural white head. Aroma of sweet dark berries and syrup. Flavour of salty licorice, chocolate and sweet decent malts. Belgian yeast is definitely there. Medium bodied, slick mouthfeel and decent carbonation. Easy to drink. I wouldn’t have guessed this was a Belgian Ale.
