8/11/2024. Bottle shared by Robin, cheers. Pours clear chestnut brown with a small bubbly off-white head. Aroma is malty, chocolate, toasted, caramel, fruity. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Moderate body, soft carbonation. Perfectly acceptable dunkel.

Bottle. Pours a dark, mahogany color, with no real head. The aroma is caramel, black pepper, cherry wood, and and mild coffee. Sweet and sugary, with a faint bitterness. Light to medium body, with a creamy, malty mouthfeel. Surprisingly nice.

Clear reddish brown colour, white head. Aroma of caramel and malts. Sweet caramel flavour. Sweet finish. Too sweet for me I’m afraid.
(From 33cL bottle @ the pre-RBBWG get-together at Tim’s place. Thanks for sharing, Tim!!)

Bouteille 33cl de et partagée avec Tderoeck. Ambrée, col beige. Arôme est malté poussiéreux restant assez faiblard malgré ce petit côté caramel et léger sucre résiduel qui se font présent. Palais est malté, caramel assez typique avec des notes de malt carapils, pâle accompagnés d’une fin amertume surtout en toute fin de bouche. Reste correcte et seul le profil malté parvient à donner vie à cette bière. Niveau bière, il y a certainement plus mauvais dans cette région du monde qui est loin d’être connue pour ses variétés de bières.
