a stout in France, how about that? And a real one... Not just a stout for making a stout, but that stout is just great. That stout is dark, sweet and dry, strong and drinkable, tasty and gorgeous. The smell is quite great with it’s licorice rememberance, the head is clear, the bitterness is sweet but really present, in any words, it’s a great one.

UPDATED: NOV 30, 2009 tasted and bought at beerpassion at antwerp... This is a great stout, 7% abv, it really kick ass, lightly bitter, but full of something really interesting a kind of sweet bitterness... it contain a bit of licorice, and this sweet the acrety of the black malt. great job folks.

Very good stout who has similiarities with the belgian "Hercule Stout". A flat beer perfumed with liquorice. If you can’t stand liquorice dont try it, but if you want to discover another way to make stout go and enjoy.
