Inspired by Strong Belgian Ales, it’s rather dark in color with ruby glares, it forms a firm frothy head and entices with its rich and complex aromas in which the warm and boozy notes are softened by the nutty ones. It’s round and sweet on the palate, with a big body, it has a long finish that leads to cocoa and roasty notes.

Tap @ Open Baladin, Rome. Pours nearly black with a small white head and lacings. Nose is vinous and vaguely roasted. Dark fruity and berries. Rather weird and a bit buttery.

Bottled@Monks Cafe Wallingatan, Stockholm. Murky reddish brown colour with small pale beige head. Aroma is sweet malts, some fruity and floral notes along with mild burnt sugary sweetness as well. Flavour is sweet malts, mild burnt sugary sweeetness, some yeast and mild notes of nuttyness. As it warms up also some alcohol comes through.

Bottled. A hazy dark amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet yet with an acidic edge and notes of caramel, fruit, spices and vegetables. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel, brown sugar, spices, fruit, and some berries, leading to a dry end - the alcohol dries out the tongue.
