Flesje gedeeld met Benzai. Amberkleurig, helder bier met weinig schuim. Aroma van chocolade en pruimen. Ook in de smaak komt de chocolade duidelijk als eerst naar boven en de fruitsmaak iets later om met de hop te eindigen.

Bottle @ home shared with Inoven. Hazy dark orange to amber color, medium sized white head. Some yeast residu on the bottom of my glass. Smell and taste malts, caramel, slightly a hint of chocolate, dark fruits, brown candy sugar, moderately sweet and lightly bitter. Quite nice. Decent body, medium to firm carbonation though not annoyingly firm. Overall quite nice.

New series of Ecaussinnes beers celebrating the Belgian revolution of 1830, this one being the - typically Wallonian - ’ambrée’. Medium thick, egg-white, lightly lacing, moussy head over a hazy orange blonde beer with amberish hue and a ’fog’ of dead yeast particles hanging around throughout the entire liquid. Aroma of banana, peanuts, melting butter, caramel candy, persimmon, withering tulips, cream, red apple, dried grass, baker’s yeast, whisky, moldy lemon peel or even lemon-flavored tea, dry field flowers, sweet tomato, old Camembert cheese. Fruity onset, estery as can be expected from a ’bière artisanale’ from Wallonia, impressions of banana (but restrained, as in: no bubblegum), peach, apple and some redcurrant, sweetish with a souring edge, medium carbo, lean and slick body gliding smoothly over the tongue, caramelly malt sweetness with a bready quality somewhere, light nutty touch too but not as much as expected from an amber ale, finishing malt sweet and yeasty (again, a bit bready but not overly so) with light floral and somewhat herbal (tea-like) hoppiness to it, bringing an earthy bitterishness to it which enlightens the caramel and fruit sweetness; brandy-like alcohol at the back too, but well in place and fairly well hidden. Has a certain dairy quality to it (buttermilk, cheese) which I can appreciate, but otherwise gets stuck in this old Belgian cliché of sweet maltiness and fruity yeastiness; not bad for what it intends to represent, as is the case with most of this brewery’s beers. Kind of enjoyed it, after all, in being a bit different from other Wallonian amber ales, including a bit more ’cleansiness’. In retrospect: could this be an alias of Ultra Ambrée?
