Donkerbruin bier, bijna zwart. Qua smaak weinig bijzonder, maar wel met een erg fijn palet.

Ibrew2or3 (5823) - Tempe, Arizona, USA - MAR 3, 2013
Tap pours with a mahogany body and supporting a mocha colored head of foam. The aroma offers up a mix of brown sugar, caramel and light spicy yeastiness. The taste delivers brown sugar mixing with Belgian candi sugar, spicy yeastiness and then a mild note of apple flavored esters sweetened up by some maltiness. The flavors come together nicely.

Viper666 (2763) - Quebec, CANADA - FEB 27, 2013
Dégustée en fût au Saint-Bock à Montréal. De couleur brune foncée et semi-voilée. Nez de levures fruitées (léger de cerises noires, notes de prunes), léger d’anis et de malt sucré aux notes rôties avec des traces de pain grillé. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen ainsi qu’une texture aux notes crémeuses. Goût de levures fruitées (léger de cerises noires, notes de raisins, traces de prunes) aux faibles notes épicées (poivre doux) avec des petites notes de réglisse noire lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un moyen goût de pain avec un léger goût de malt sucré aux notes rôties ainsi que des traces de sucre brun puis en finale l’on retrouve une très légère amertume de houblon herbeux. Post-goût moyen, composé d’un léger goût de levures fruitées avec des notes de houblon herbeux ainsi que des petites traces rôties. (26 février 2013)

vipinvelp (1225) - Velp, NETHERLANDS - DEC 26, 2012
Dark brown color, initial with brown foam head, but that is fading away quickly. Sweet aroma, not surprising as sugar is added to this beer. Bit too sweet taste for me, not bad, but sweet. (Velp 201212)

thanatosti (606) - NETHERLANDS - DEC 21, 2012
33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Hogerdijk, Culemborg. dark brown with a beige head. Caramel aroma with dried fruits and some nuts. Bitter taste but a bit watery. Same goes for the aftertaste. Decent beer but nothing more than that.
