Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Assebroek-Brugge, Belgium

Bottle at Cambrinus, Bruges, Belgium
Hazy, amber to brown body. Off-white rocky orval-like head. The aroma reminds me of a factory making animal fodder, which has a very cloyingly sweet aroma. Just like breathing glucose. There are hops and flowers too in the aroma. Lightly sweet, moderately bitter flavour. Has some funkiness of a flemish sour ale. Very well balanced and extra ordinary flavour. Well done. I need to get my hands on more of this.

This dark brown ale poured with a huge tan head. The flavor is slightly sour and fruity with a hoppy finish.

[Bottle. Bought at Salone Birra Milano 2006] A sort of honey flavored, sour ale. Reddish cloudy amber color complex aroma with yeast, banana, clover. Taste is subtly sweet with honey, fruits and a pleasant tartiness in the finish. Smooth mouthfeel, full body. Bitterness low to medium, slightly more apparent in the finish. Very balanced taste, very attractive and original brew.
