Brewed by ’t Hofbrouwerijke
Style: Sweet Stout
Beerzel, Belgium

33cl bottle at Delirium Cafe. BB 08/08. Pours dark brown with a creamy white head on top. Nose is sweet and nutty. Caramel, yeast and vague roasted notes. Smooth and sweet taste with hints of chocolate. Very simple, yet elegant and tasty.

sample by way of superdave70.

pours a fairly dark brown shade of black with a spongy cocoa colored head. the aroma is heavy on the roast with notes of cocoa, belgian chocolate, faint yeast, caramel and a touch of smoke which is amplified when the beer warms. the palate is surprisingly NOT as sweet as the aroma lead me to believe but the profile is pretty much the same. it has the addition of some black currants and a mild roasty bitterness on the finish which cleans everything up. it is medium bodied but light on the tongue. it*s soft and restrained enough to make a session of this... 7/4/7/3/15/3.6

Bottle. Pours black with an average, rocky, dark brown head, somewhat lasting with good lacing. Aroma is heavy malt -cookie, caramel, chocolate-, average hops -flowers, perfume-, average yeast -leather- with notes of plum and smoke. Medium bodied, sticky texture, lively carbonation, and a bitter finish. Average duration, light sweetness, moderate acidity and bitterness.

Clear dark brown body with a small tan head. Roasty malt and coffee in the aroma. Sweet flavor of caramel, chocolate and coffee. A bit thin on the palate for my tastes, but overall not a bad brew.

Sample courtesy of Superdave70. Good toffee and coffee aromas. Brown body with tan head. Flavor was a dose of sweet candy caramel with some toffee in the mix. Dry coffee aftertaste thanks for sharing Growler Dave.

Bottle. Opaque black body with a medium tan head. Very roasty aroma from lots of roasted malts and some chocolate and caramel. Medium bodied. Lots of roasted malt and a good cofeeish bitterness in flavour. Long bitter aftertaste with some chocolate and smoke notes. Great stout.

Courtesy of SuperDave. Pours a dark brown with a light brown head. Arma of chocolate, dark fruits, and barley. Flavor is barley, malt, and a bit watered down. Lots of roast in this one and reminds me a bit of a moonlit sessions on some ways. Interesting brew, thanks Dave!

Bottle(stout) pours thick black with no light passing through at all, medium dark tan head. Looks great. Aroma is definalty that of a stout, I get dark malt, sweet chocolate, and light carmel. Taste is pretty big, low bitterness, more dark malt, smoke, roasted malt, and oat. Mouth is creamy with low carbonation. The flavors are focused more on grain, so this beer is more one dimensional.
