Transfering data from personal beer file. I drank this beer a long time ago. I’ll update this rating if I have the chance to drink it again.

Pours a nice dark brown color. Has a very nice sweet taste and a aroma of dark fruits, perhaps the best beer from the Hoegaarden brewery.

Had this beer some time ago, transferring data from database before Januar I was using to rate beer. As I drink this again I will add a complete review.

33cl bottle, Sheffield, UK. The Devonshire Cat. Hazy tan. Spiced peach aroma. Some brown sugar and caramel. Sweet, prominent alcohol though not overpowering. Clove and coriander on the finish.

Bottle. A specialty brew from Hoegaarden is always something to look out for. This one is new to me. Pours a deep coppery body with a small white head. Nose is Belgian ale yeast, cherries and caramel. Taste is caramel and Belgian ale yeast again, with hints of corn and red berries. Slightly fizsy carbonation, which actually lifts this brew a bit. OK, but not great and not unusual enough to justify how the beer is profiled.

Nice spicy warming beer. Not bitter , pleasant to drink. Pretty good. Bottle was a gift
