Bouteille de 750ml. Bouchon de liège, version à 6,5%. Bière brune avec une mousse beige, il y a une forte carbonation. Elle mousse beaucoup. Le nez est bien complexe avec des épices, des noisettes et du chocolat. La bouche offre des saveurs de noisette, d’épices, de chocolat, elle est piquante et elle prend beaucoup d’expansion en bouche par le surplus de gaz carbonique. 7/10

3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 Leighton (3598) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - AUG 29, 2011
On tap at the Cafe Belgique in Amsterdam. Pours dark brown with a creamy, off-white head. Dark malts, dark fruits, grapes, fruit punch and berries make up the aroma. Quite a sweet flavor, more dark fruits, light chocolate, almost licorice notes, sherry, some floral notes. Medium to full in body with average but heavy carbonation. Lightly warming finish, tingly carbonation here and some booze, sweet and fruity, florals on the tail, some burnt candi. Pretty decent brew.
