Dark brown colour, big creamy head, creme-coloured. Staying in the glass for a long while. In the nose there is roasted malts, coffee, caramel. Tastes hoopy, bitter, herbal, hints of coffee and malts. A bit sweet, but for sure not dominating. Long finish, Nice.

30cl, from the brewery, complex brew, yet easy to drink, balanced, hazy, good head, good Trappist

Dark chestnut with a big off-white head. Aroma of rich dried fruits, spicy phenols, alcohol and a mild oxidation. Sweet and fruity flavour with warming alcohol, and lingering malt and chocolate notes.

75cl bottle. Thanks a lot Nightfall. Trade. Pours dark browny/reddish with a small creamy white head and lacings. Sweet yeasty and malty nose. Dark fruits and caramel. A bit dusty and matured taste. Medium and smooth palate. Tasty.

It poured a hazy dark brown liquid with a small light brown foam. It had a fairly weak smell of yeast and spices. It had allot of carbonation and a taste of spices, caramell and yeast. An ok beer.

0.33L bottle, big, thick, light beige head, deep, dark brown almost opaque with just a touch of lighter brown hues. Rich malty nose with toasty hints, flavours of dark chocolate, bread, dark fruits and hints of metal and soy. Long fruity aftertaste, medium to big body. Very good and satisying bock.

Bottle: malty, burnt caramel, coffish notes, faint smoke, some butter notes, pretty sweet with a dry finish.

Deep mahogany pour with a small, short-lived, off-white head. The aroma is caramel, toffee, and fig with hints of anise and brown sugar. The flavor is sweet dark fruit with some caramelized brown sugar, cinnamon, and licorice. Sticky, medium-full body with lots of carbonation.
