Old-fashioned sweet stout, of the type nobody in Flanders still appreciates, tasted at café De Gans; made by Louwaege when it was still in existence and tasted as old beer (4 years old). Thin but dense, beige head, near black colour with ruby hue. Candied fruits in the nose, some faint coffee (with milk), candi syrup; sweet taste, candi-like, chocolatey, soft and slick, sourish touch, weak roasted bitterness in the end. Very good for its style.

(Bottle 33 cl) Black as coffee with a huge, frothy head. Very sweet, sticky stout with some notes of caramel and candi sugars And perhaps something slightly lactic in the finish. Not an easy beer. 120498

Bottled. Very black with rich brown head. Aroma of winegums along with coffee. Extremely sweet and candyish. Only drinkable in very small sips.

BBd is 5/03, so it's still original and another for posterity... Colour is black, with disparate, dark-brown head. nose of sweet molasses, brown sugar and some tobacco. Taste is very sweet, liquorice, like very sugared mocca-coffee with coffee milk. Even with the little head, there is some carbonation which gives a reasonable balance. Mouthfeel is all body, all malt and no alcohol. This is a difficult taste for the usual beerrater, but in its style (sweet stout) it is rather a good one. A slight bitterness in the palate might have improved it, but the balance sweet-sour is OK.

Dark ale, thick head. Quite pleasant but uncommon aroma (some roasted malt, other grains -rye?-, wet paper). Sweet, enough body, very light roasted malt taste, easy to drink but without character. Simple palate.
