Excellent beer. Need to let this one warm to room tempature to get the full flavor. Pours a reddish brown with an average light brown heard that quickly disappears. Great aroma of malts and spice. Smooth creamy mouthfeel with soft carbonation. Great mix of malts and spice with a little bit of a dry finish.

13 Dec 08: Brown, generous amount of head. Very sweet, typical Belgian. Shared this with a friend, was not a problem to share.

Bottle. Pours copper brown and has a very special nose. Aroma’s are apparently moisty (hence grot?) and tart. Very well balanced and very drinkable. Good stuff!
