| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 26, 2009 0.33 L bottle@Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. A thin, fine-laced beige head upon a clear, dark reddish-amber body. Sweetish, nutty malt aroma with notes of dried dark fruits, bread-crust and alcohol. Taste is very sweet, caramellish malts, brown sugar and dried dark fruits. Notes of mild spices, pepper and alcohol warmth. Despite the massive sweetness, mouthfeel is not sticky at all, quite slick actually. Medium to full body. A bit one-dimensional maybe, but still a tasty and well-made Belgian. fonefan (11099), VestJylland, Denmark
