Light brown coloured beer with large off-white head. A yeasty malty aroma. Full palate, bit creamy. Finish is roasted also bit alcoholic near the end it gets a little bitter. Nice one.

Hazy and cloudy brown coloured body with a thinish tan head. Aroma of apples, corn, malt, sugar and a tad of spice. Medium-bodied; Assertive fruits, malt and a bit of alcohol coming out immediately. Gives way to a pungent effervescence showing some sour notes, but mostly strong malty flavours with sweetness and alcohol. Overall, a potent and complex beer - with more malt and fruit notes than yeastie & light flavours. Great to try, I’m definitely happy I picked this up! I sampled this 33 cL swing-top bottle (best by 26-june-2010) purchased from Beer Mania in Bruxelles, Belgium on 17-November-2008, sampled on the Eastern Shore of Virginia on 28-February-2009.

Bottle @ Felthaus/Søren Belgian tasting.
Pours deep brown-orange with a nice, frothy, off-white head. Aroma has liquorice, viniousness, toffee and light dried fruits. Good, creamy mouthfeel. Flavour is sweet, some toffee, light yeast, rye bread and weak ashy notes. Lovely beer with some good softness and lightly warming.
