3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 JorisPPattyn (6428) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - AUG 7, 2009
Good, pale beige head, irregular over fully opaque black beer. Rich roasted & vanilla aroma; slightly sweet, caramelized syrup. Dry stout taste initially, burnt & slight typical stout (roasted barley) sweetness. There’s a strange vinous flavour, as from a sweet, but ripened sherry, making it way more complex than an ordinary stout. Warming up, a faint smoked ham flavour, even! Medium bodied, very slick and nearly viscous, much more than a 4.5% ABV beer would warrant. Surprising - in the meliorative sense - stout.
