3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Koelschtrinker (7066) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - JUN 11, 2011
Dezent malziger Antrunk mit süßer Beinote, die an dem Malz zu kleben scheint. Eine fruchtige Note wird angedeutet, aber bald wieder verworfen, um der Malzigkeit mehr Platz einzuräumen, der danken eingenommen wird. Die Süße klebt weiter an der Malzigkeit, auch wenn sie mit der Zeit etwas milder wird. Gutes, wenn auch etwas monotones Bier.
Test vom 10.10.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,10,9,10,12,9 - 9,45
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 chriso (7065) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - JAN 5, 2004
Our final beer in the excellent La Fleur en Papier Dore bar in Brussels, following on from the De Neve Kriek (q.v.). Dark brown in colour (not surprisingly). Sweetness, malt and fruit in equal measure. Not really my favourite style, and bit cloying after a while, but OK. Bottled, September 2003.

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 JoeMcPhee (6969) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 23, 2004
Gorgeous dark brown beer with a thick rocky off-white head, sticky lacing. Malty aroma, intense mintiness, caramel, brown sugar. Flavour also shows yeasty spiciness. Quite sweet up front. Flavour is slightly bready and the finish is nutty. Not bad, but doesn’t show a whole lot of intensity or complexity and has a tendency to become cloying.
