Shared bottle at Christmas beer tasting 15.12.12.
Red-copper color, little to no head, sweet, malty slightly sour aroma.
Slightly unpleasent bitterness with hints of detergent, malts dominate the taste but it finishes way to thin for a beer of this style.

500 ml bottle. Dark brown. Clear. Small off-white head. Nutty aroma with spicy toffee notes. Black pepper, cinnamon and a little caradamom. Waffles. Dry powdery texture. Light bodied, but there’s enough things happening here for the beer to be interesting. There’s something Belgian here, but not overly typical.
