On Christmas Eve at the Lumencraft Pub. Cloudy red-brown, beige head. Smells of cocoa muffins with dark fruit - nice but very faint, and there's a lot of harsh stricken match like phenols. Tastes as bland but simple and easy drinking Belgian ale - light fruit, traces of bread or muffins, moderate fruity pastry sweetness, light phenolic spice. Soft carbonation, light astringency. No zest. Not as bad as I thought, now that is has settled. Drinkable.
