Commercial Description:
It was created in 1933 by Alfred Dubuisson, grand-father of the present family brewer, Hugues. Its former name was "Bush Beer 24°" (the density in Ballings), but today it is known as Bush Amber. Its amber colour is due to the use of caramel malt in the production process. Its bitter sweet taste provides it with firmness and personality. What's more, it helps digestion.

This was part of my mix-a-six of Belgian Strong Ale style beers. One of the better ones but, since they were mix-a-six, you sometimes run into old beers. I need to start budgeting for beer.......

classic Belgian strong ale. Slighlty sweeter than most but sweetness brings out the fruits... Apricot, peach for sure. Nice balance for the ABV.

Bottle - Cloudy copper with thin beige head. Floating sediment. Fruity aroma. Sweet, fruity, a little spicy. Low to medium carbonation. Medium to full bodied. Alcohol warmth comes though (not surprisingly) . Not bitter.

250mL bottle, pours a dark golden/amber with a medium white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is fruit, malts, brown sugar and spice. Flavour is sweet malts, caramel and dark sugars. Alcohol is quite potent. Long, powerful finish. Almost like a cognac...

As Scaldis. Pours a clear medium copper color with a small ivory head. Aroma is of sweet dark fruits and alcohol, also a little cream and butter, but yes, a lot of alcohol in the aroma. Nutty, alcohol-filled flavor with anise and mint towards the end. Somewhat like a doppelbock or eisbock. The alcohol is way too present. Medium viscosity, average mouthfeel. Not well done. Overall, fair plus.

Tap at Delirium Café, Brussels. Dark, brownish olor. The foam was very creamy and thick. Sweet aroma with a lot of malt, brown sugar, syrup and spices. The flavor contained some cherries, apples, candy, soap, and yeast. Strong taste of alcohol, the beer seemed not optimally balanced.
