Bottle @ Yespr tasting.
[thank you, BelJohansen]
Pours lightly hazy red-amber with a small creamy off white head. Aroma is sweet, light caramel, some clear raisins. Okay creamy mouthfeel with a medium carbonation. Flavour is rounded, light sweetness, godd yeaty presence, but still, this is unspectacular.

33 cL bottle, thanks to BelJohansen. Pours hazy orange with a lacing white head. Ligth fruity and caramel malt aroma. Flavour is slight herbal to spice with a dominant yet smooth caramel malt base and a light yeast note. Nice sweet finish, light yeast note.

Huge beige coarseish head. Deep amber body with carbonation. Light yeasty, bready aroma of licorice and cinnamon with peppery notes. Sweetish bready licorice taste with peppery notes and very faint hints of banana. A bit watery. Carbonates in the mouth, giving a sharpish feel. Dryish papery licorice aftertaste with hints of chocolate and wood. Boring and watery. (0.33l bottle from the wine monopoly.)

330ml bottle. Lovely dark amber body with big light beige head. Aroma is sweet malt, caramel, brown sugar, spices and yeast. Flavor is much the same as the aroma, very harmonic and typical Belgium. Medium body and low bitterness, noting to demanding here, but just very pleasant and not to sweet.

330 ml bottle. Mahogny colour with a reddish hue. Clear. Tall coarse off-white head. High carbonation level as lots of bubbles rise to the top quickly. Belgian yeast character. Light aromas with a hint of bread. Sharp hoppy edge. On the bitter side. High carbonation level. Spritzy. Raisins and esters. A hint of münchener malt. Classical Belgian yeast flavours.
