Malevolently dark in color, yet indulgently complex in character. This Belgian strong ale pours copper-brown with a delicate nose of spicy pepper, toasted malt, fig, raisons, and light earth. Peppery farmhouse yeast qualities continue on the palate with nuanced complementary flavors of semi-sweet caramel and dark fruit. The finish is deceptively smooth and moderately dry with a pleasantly warming hint of alcohol.

Pours mahogany-tinged black into a snifter. Mocha head with medium retetention recedes to hug rim. Dark cocoa and pit fruit aromas. Medium bodied with dark chocolate and caramel upfront turning slightly warming in the lasting bitter pith finish. ABV very well hidden.
