Dec 1, 2009 Bottle sample at a tasting. Black with huge brown head. Strong aroma of brett, oak, cherries, and roasted, slightly coffee-ish, chocolatey malt and bourbon notes. Sweet roasty flavor with some light woody sourness, lots of dark fruits, some pralines and barnyard. Full-bodied. Maybe slightly infected but very enjoyable.

Nov 23, 2009 On draught at pre-Zythos bash, Alvinne, March 2009. Very dark. Lots of chewy fruit in the aroma and the flavour. Lovely licorice in the flavour too. Some bitter cocoa and subtle woody vinous notes. But the plummy fruit is in the driving seat. Alcohol is warming but not too boozy. Spectacular stuff. I was enjoying it so much I nearly forgot to make any notes.

Nov 17, 2009 Bottle: i think it was a little infected, sourness in the nose, some brett, wet wood, reminds me of lambic, cocca, cocca butter, milk chocolate, honey, charcoal, gummy bears candy, i’m sure it could have been better.

Nov 14, 2009 Even more black than Black Albert. Aroma is complex, coffee, chocolate, hops caramel and bourbon whisky. Taste is a little more sweet than Black Albert, Vanille, dark sugars, coffee, chocolate and art. Carlos and Urbain, Merci for letting me taste the most rare beer and for telling me the story behind the colourful label.

Nov 11, 2009 Bottled at 1st Borefts Beer Festival, Bodegraven. Opaque black appearance. Roasted malts and fruit in aroma, vanilla. Flavour has obvious sour notes, fruit, roasted malts, bourbon, very complex, yet smooth. I’m not a big fan of Black Albert, but this one is really nice.
