(On tap) Caramel coloured, caramel in the nose, but...sherry in the flavours! Oh yes, this is a sherry beer indeed... Brownish head, slightly sweet and nutty, rather low in carbonation. But lovely. 180501

On tap at Zythos, Brabanthal, Leuven, Belgium Saturday 28th April 2012 Pours murky brown in colour. Very, very sweet and with the addition of four bottles of port per barrel (so we were told by the man working the stall) this is very port heavy up front, actually throughout. Marginally better than the Grand Cru but again not one to get excited about. A6 A3 T6 P2 Ov11 2.8

Tap @ Kerstbierfestival 2011 in Essen (B). A clear light brown colored beer, with a beige head. The aroma of roasted malt with some caramel and fruits. The taste of caramel malt and fruits. The aftertaste is bitter with sweet.

Sampled at OBER Kerstbierfestival Essen 2011. Hazy amber color, small off-white head. Smell some rubber, smoke, skunk. Tastes the same. Average carbonation, low to medium body.

Kerstbierfestival, Essen Tap: Amber coloured not so good special brew from this pubbrewery, but its an rare find it so far from Inbev-ville.

Did not have a very remarkable taste. Was a bit malty and had a short afterlife.

Draught @ Domus Cafe, Leuven. Clear dark amber to brown color with a decent creamy beige head. Aroma is mild and earthy. Flavor is a little bit malty sweet with a hint of roasty/smoky. Medium bodied with no lingering complexity. A nice drinkable ale, but not as complex as some other Belgian winter brews.
