Commercial Description:
A darker, slightly sweeter beer than its blond counterpart, Loterbol Bruin is a delicious strong Belgian ale, brewed in tiny batches at Belgium’s smallest brewery. Highly drinkable, even at 8% alcohol, this beer lives up to its name, which translates roughly to ’prankster.’ Unlike most Belgian beers of this strength, Loterbol Bruin is not loaded with candi sugar. It does not want for malty sweetness, but it is superbly balanced with enough hops to stand up to the high alcohol. A remarkable brew, if a difficult one to find . . . we bring in only about 60 cases a year.

Bottle from Keg Liquor. Poured hazy brown color with a large frothy brown head that was mostly lasting with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy toasted sweet malt aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and flat carbonation. Medium to heavy complex sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. My expectations where met.

33cl bottle @ DHVL. Pours dark brown with a large fluffy and creamy white foam and lacings. Taste is rotten vegetables - probably the yeast. Caramel, earth and something which reminds me of smoke. Quite rotten and bad.

Pours a lot of head. Sits in the glass until a pillow of light brown begins to deflate. Lots of caramel in the taste. Plumbs. Hoppy finish. Nice. Bought at Wine and Cheese in St. Louis.
