Dec 17, 2006 Cask. Opens with fairly bright fruity tones. Lingers on in a decent body. As a full pint it is cumbersome. I get the feeling these extract-brewed KBC beers are all a little unconvincing, lacking some ’oomph’ in the finish and I suppose naturalness.

Dec 16, 2006 Cask. Very dark brown, with a great fluffy beige head and decent lacing on the glass. Mild aroma is a touch muted, of sweet dark malt, very light toasty notes and mild alcohol notes. Surpisingly bitter, sweet dark malt middle with a finish that is decidedly on the bitter side with a very light acidic note. Creamy light palate, served just a touch too warm even for cask. Not quite sure what to make of this one, pleasant but a touch bland at the same time.

Jan 12, 2004 Nice hearthy aroma, with some nuttyness. Vinous, onctuous mouthfeel with lots of caramalized malts, but with a tinge of acidity. A good offering from KBC.

Dec 12, 2003 (Draught) Clumpy, beige head with near opaque reddish body. Nose of cask whiskey and dark malt. Strong whiskey taste and smooth malt finish. Smooth and tingly mouthfeel. My new favourite at KBC!

Dec 11, 2003 Lingering, earthy bitterness over petty pepper and raspy apples...Sweet caramel stirs up a healthy, plump body...A bit on the sweet side for a bitter, but I like ample-bodied beers...
