33cl bottle. pours dark brown, tan head. aroma, mild dark fruits, malty nose, yeasty, notes of candi sugar and light roast. flavors, some roasted malts, coupled with nice sweet candi sugar, dark fruits; prunes, currant maybe some molasses, medium-high carbonation. Mild lingering yeasty notes in the finish.

Pours out dark brown, medium lightly beige head that holds not long enough, but the last part stays some longer it seems. Sweet caramel with fruits smell. Not bad. Lightly the hops comes through also. Sweet, lightly fruited taste. Some bread/cookies inside. Not bad, could get some more body maybe, some more taste, cause a bit to watery in my opinion. Mouthfeel is ok, and the beer is drinkeable for sure.

Dark brown, orange glow, large floaties. Aroma of prune, hops, forest fruits, caramel, bubblegum and Turkish fruit tobacco. Flavour is a balanced bitter sweetness with red fruit, hints of coffee, caramel, a bit dry, fading away slowly. Nice.

33cl bottle
Pours a darkbrown red, Coca-cola like color with a creamy beige head.
The nose has hints of roasted malts, caramel, lots of yeast, hops and dark fruits. Palate is full and has notes of coffee, chocolate, yeast and a slight hop bitternes.
A decent brew.

A typical dark and sweet Belgian beer. I must admit that it what somewhat later in the evening when I had it, but I wasn’t really impressed. A little too sweet for me, but ok - I’ve definately had worse.

Bottle. Quite strong smell of yeast, fresh bread and some hops. The head is very large, foamy and white with a long duration. The body is dark red. The taste is very malty, some melkchocolate, later light fruity and sour. The body is creamy, light to medium strong with a lively carbonation.

330 ml bottle. Dark brown body, white head. Caramel, malt and dark fruits in the aroma. Some Alcohol too, not too much though. Flavour adds raisins, more dark fruits and chocolate. Some alcohol in taste also. Nice blanced belgian for my taste.

Pours a deep ruby with a decent white head and loads of yeast chunkies. Caramel malt nose. Taste is slightly metallic with some maraschino cherries. Meh.

Dark brown, edge & surface head, little lacing. Caramel nose and taste, light body. Decent.
