Ardenne's Craft Beer, lightly dark, with beautiful shiny reflects. Differents from the classic dark ales, because of its mild character, and the small touch of citrus at the end.

27th May 2012: On tap at the Lupulus brewery’s restaurant, "Les 3 Fourquets"; poured into one of their 25 cl chalices after I’d had two glass of the regular ’Lupulus’. This version is obviously brown in colour: well it’s dark brown with a big off-white head at the brewery. Good mix of flavours in the nose and the tatse: malty and semi-sweet with a hop bitterness never far away, yeast notes also adding to the overall effect. Glad I had one.

On tap @ Kafé België, Utrecht. Dark brown with a nice big tan head. The perfect marriage, at least to me, between an IPA and Abbey Dubbel. The aroma and bitterness from the hops and the sweetness and caramel from a dubbel. Maybe it was because of the atmosphere (I was there with my son on a perfect father-son day) but this beer is instantly one of my favourites. Will rate (and taste!) again soon.

Medium yellow head over hazy brown-amber beer. Very spiced nose, and lots of ureum (the hops?). Honey, dark malts, bready; sweet - very dark Bock-like. Medium to really well-bodied, slick and warming. Nice beer, appears very German to me.
