Our winter beer is a dark and heartwarming beer with a full pure, slightly sweet taste and long soft bittery aftertaste. The ingredients are: seven types of malt (including rolled oats), two types of Belgian hops, brewing water and yeast. This is the ideal beer to make a cold and chilly winter evening cosy.

33 cl. bottle sampled @ Bierkaffee ’t Middelpunt in Zolder. Likely vintage. Thx! Dark chestnut, woody, touch black with little mocha head. Nose is full of chocolate, dark fruits, BE yeast, touch syrup, hint esters, lovely & soft, everything you could possibly want. Taste is thick chocolate, lots of ripe & soft BE dark fruits, syrup, chocolate, cake, syrupy, caramel, warming, toffee, hint boozy even. Substantial but easy to drink. Truly impressive within & outside of its style, stellar brew.

Bottle - dark purplish red - label states it is brewed with juniper, and it sure is evident in the aroma and flavor - aroma is earthy juniper, raisin, plum, fig - fairly soft and full in the mouth - flavor is sweet, but with balancing bitterness and earthy juniper and twig/bark flavors - notes of licorice, plum, cinnamon - finish is fairly dry, with strong lingering licorice root flavors - nice cold weather beer.

Tiefdunkle Farbe, süßlich-dickflüssiger dunkler & leicht scharfer Geruch! Der Antrunk ist vollmundig-süßlich, dunkel. Zum Hauptteil kommt eine sehr angenehme röstige trocken-malzige Note hinzu, wahrscheinlich auch durch das Hafermalz bedingt, dessen Verwendung ich sehr gut finde. Der Nachgeschmack ist lang anhaltend, dickflüssig, malzig-schwer, Karamell, Toffee, dunkle Trockenpflaumen, aber auch für meinen Geschmack etwas zu süßlich!! Ganz leicht alkoholisch. --> trotzdem ein sehr leckeres Bier!! --> A 13 / Sü 12 / Ng 13 / Ges 13

Bardzo smaczne zimowe piwo, prawdziwe sezonowo warzone w zimie. Rozgrzewajaca nuta i alkoholowy finisz. W zapachu ciasteczka korzenne i gozdziki, troche cynamonu. W smaku lukrecja slodki karmel i rozgrzewajace zaraz po przelknieciu. Piwo bardzo ciemne i prawie czarne z lekkimi tylko przeswitami czerwieni. Wielka piana.

Flaske fra Belgisk Bryg: mitt Chouffe-glass fylles til randen av et tett skum som legger seg som lette kniplinger. En deilig aroma og smak av bjørnebær og boysenbær, iblandet litt lakris. Et helåprs snopeøl, og perfekt til første episode av den nye, kontemporære Sherlock Holmes-episoden på nrk.
