Dec 10, 2005 a sim rate: (on tap at Bier Circus, Croydon)
Very spicy aroma with a bit of a synthetic washing powder scent. Tastes a bit like something battered and fried, but I couldn’t place what. Bit of a hard liquor edge to the aftertaste.

Jan 2, 2006 A fabolous smelling beer that HAS to be above 5 degrees C, otherwise it has a very powerful taste of alcohol.

Feb 16, 2004 Updated: Nov 28, 2004Deep dark brown with a big off-white head, quickly fading. Big spicy aroma of cloves, thyme, cinnamon, a little hay-ish and definitely on the sweet take (caramel, toffee) with light notes of alcohol. Taste is more of the same original spiciness, very smooth altogether. I swear you taste the barley in there, siding sweet chocolate and candyish toffee. How belgians manage to balance their beers to avoid being cloying through spices keeps me in total awe. Slightly alcoholic finish. Creamy medium body, rather carbonated. Good, but I still prefer their Chouffe and McChouffe, so it’s a mild disappointment.
Resample many months later. I still don’t see this as my favorite achouffe product, but I liked it more than the first time, having this last version 1yr and a half older than the last one. Nice parsley and herbal flavors. Great flavor integration. Doesn’t get overly sweet, nice spicy bitterness. Soft mouthfeel. Rising from 3.7 to 3.9.
