Rastacouere (5258), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Jul 29, 2005 Clear amber, limited head. Appealing nose of overwhelming dates, figs and funky spices. Very toasty maltiness, nutmeg like touched french toast. Good stuff, original and lively mouth presence. Almost vinous yet well hopped. Rasiny, sticky dates and lichen like spice medley all seem to enjoy each others’ company. Gentle carbonation is at a perfect level, soft palate, medium bodied. Excellent. CapFlu (3254), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Jul 20, 2005 (Draught) Sampled at the Belgium Comes To Cooperstown 2005 in Cooperstown, NY. Pours a deep amber with a fully dissipating, white head. Nose and flavour is mildly spiced and milky. Very good.
