unfortunately no more available in the dutch market. no more produced. seems gone forever like vos...

Made without sweetness, fully natural ingredients, extra points fore that. Dark amber color, sweet malty taste, deep sweet smell like vanilla and banana. long lasting toffee aftertaste.

(bottle) Clear copper colour with a mid-sized foamy tanned head. Sweet toasted malts aroma with hints of soap. Sweet malty flavour and taste, medium bodied, moderately carbonated. Sweet and light hoppy finish. Not really bad, but a tad too sweet for me.

Foxy amber, small white head. Malty, sweetish nose. Malty taste, sweet, but with unpleasant medicinal notes. Finishes short.

Foxy amber; good amber thick head. Bit oppressive toasted malt nose, grassy. Cookie malt, ambrée, cornflakes in a would-be Belgian taste. Light burning MF, adequate body. Pfff. Silly amber.

This is kind of a harsh, commercial attempt to brew a sweet but weak belgian style dark beer. It’s not bad, but when you are at a party, like I was, and this was the only beer around, you really start to get nostalgic for Miller Lite after the fourth or fifth of these puppies. It scores well in the aroma department because despite numerous people having had this poured on them (this was a MAJOR party), the general scent of the place wasn’t unpleasant.

Clear light amber color. Sweet malty aroma. Flavor is malty and slightly roasty. Maybe some banana flavor? Palate is just a tad thin. Some hop flavor and more body would greatly help this one, still though I found it to be extremely drinkable and drink many I did.

A nice enough beer, but it needs a bit more going on with it. Sweet but not too sweet.
