Brewed exclusively for ’t Waagstuk in Antwerp. Dark brown body with a large tan head. Aroma of cigar and cereals. Very malty body with plenty of roasted malts, dark caramel and chewing tobacco. Very little of the dark fruits flavours usually present in that type of beer. More hoppy than most belgian strongs with medium bitterness in the finish. Pretty good beer. The carbonation of this Zeppelin is co2 right? Last time they tried using hydrogen in a Zeppelin it didn’t turn out very well.
