0.75 litre bottle: bought at De Bierboom, Brugge and shared between five at the Aug 2015 Shrewsbury bottle exchange evening. It was a gusher, so each glass had a huge rich tanned head on it’s swirling black beer. Nose of chocolate and tobacco, earthy and peaty. The taste followed the aroma closely ending with a dry finish. Good effort and plenty of flavour for such a weak ABV Belgian beer.

Bottle at Rootz. Pours dark brown with massive lively tan head. Aroma of roast, dark chocolate, overripe dark fruits and a touch of citrus. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter. Light medium bodies with way too high carbonation.

Some fruity and citrus notes in aroma. Flavour has very roasted, almost burnt malts. Some coffee in the finish. Very full flavoured for only 4.5%.

Flaska från Saveur-bier. Skummar ut flaskan, stort långsamt sjunkande skum. Småbubblig i munnen, som alla belgiska stouts. Lätt kropp, lätt sötma och men också riktigt torr p g a rejäl beska. Stora rostade dofter som inte är lika markanta i smaken. Mörkt bröd, med lite vaxig honung, aska, läder, hårdrostat kaffe, torr bitter choklad. Lite felsmaker i bakgrunden men annars trevlig.

GBBF Day 4. The great Harrisoni/madmitch76 walkabout. Bottle. Opaque dark brown beer, small pale tan head. Crisp and dry palate. Mild dark malts and light earthy coffee. Touch of roast. Mild floral note. Subtle orange hop before a dry finish. Roasty linger. Okay. Start to get a bit chewy despite it’s thin palate.
