Commercial Description:
Unpasteurized, Unfiltered, Bottle-Refermented Belgian Ale. The Brasserie Des Légendes is housed in a medieval castle in the town of Irchonwelz, in the French-speaking south of Belgium. Its majestic gate stands high to allow the passage of the occasional visiting giant ... as the town is famous for its annual giants parade.

Poured a slightly hazed cherry wood color with a large long lasting beige head. Sweet caramel malt and a touch of spice. The flavor is drier with a moderate spice front and dry chocolate back. Dry finish. Mild warmth with a light-medium body.

Bottle. Hazy orange with next to no head. Aroma of orange peel, preserved fruit and a touch of spice. Flavour had some fruit, caramel and a dry finish. Light but drinkable.
