A reddish copper ale with a thick creamy moka head. Gushed once opened. In aroma, aroma of lemon and cherries, musty and gueuzy. In mouth, loads of sour cherries, with some raspy astringence, acidic, not bad...I guess this one improved with age. Bieropholie import, more than a year old.

Brought back from Cave a Bulles by my folks. Pours with a bubbly, loud head that fades rather quickly. Color is dark ruby copper red. A bit too dark to see through without some direct light. Aroma is kind of dank basement euro hops along with French-y floral, musky malts. Flavor follows with a standard French maltiness, a bit musty, a bit biscuit and floral. A light bodied beer, easy to drink with a malty tea aftertaste. A bit of an earthy, almost grinds of coffee, kick at the very end. Decent stuff, not getting any sourness just some musty malt flavors completely normal to a French BdG. I would call this a BdG and not a Belgian.
11.2oz bottle, St Paul tulip/snifter glass.
