Bottle: Cloudy burgundy color with an off-white film for head. Vinous nose, with some oxidized malts and herbal, raisiny suggestions. Elegant aroma. Nice fluffy body. The flavor has a nice tartness all around. Vinous, with some green raisin brightness. There’s some oxidized malt in the background, somewhat grainy notes, accompanied by a nutty spice character as well. There’s prolonged vinous qualities into the finish. Individualistic, and tasty Belgian Strong Ale.

Bottle. Brown pour with an off white head. Aroma of yeast, malt, light oak. Flavors were sour fruits, light funk, wood and dry malt. Medium body, light sour/oaky with a dry finish.

On tap at Map Room, Chicago. I didn’t know anything about this beer when sampled. I told my brother-- it tastes like someone mixed a Belgian strong ale with grapefruit juice. Strong tart citrus flavor. Not exaclty my cup of tea-- but might be refreshing on a warm summer day.

Bottle from Bier Koning. Dark brown and copper colour. Sour nose. The taste reminds me of a sour flemish ale. Taste of fruits. Acidic and very sour. Mouthfeel fine. Taste not my thing.

Quite an unattractive beer! Very murky, hazy muddy-looking dark copper colored. No head at all. The aroma to me smells like peanuts, but it also has a little fruitiness deep in there. The flavor is odd. Somewhat fruity - strawberries and raisins, but quite tart and acidic overall. Medium carbonation.
