A classic dry stout of 7% vol alcohol, brewed with smoked wheat malt and flavored with fresh vanilla.
Charbon is a beer with contradictions: the roasted flavors work together with the smoke flavor from oak-smoked wheat malt to give a good dose of pit with the beer. On the other hand the customized extract of fresh vanilla gives us a mild soft and subtle touch in the beer. The combination provides a thrilling Stout on which the antithetical taste nevertheless ensures a harmonious and balanced whole.

Bière 33 cl achetée chez l'abbaye des saveurs à Lille. Au service, on dirait du coca cola, tant par la couleur que la mousse et même le son que font les bulles vives qui s'évanouissent... La mousse ne tient pas longtemps. Nez ultra fumé qui rappelle presque du bacon. Bouche sur le cacao, le café, le fumé très présent, une bière intense et à la carbonatation vive pour ce registre. Très très réussie ! (M)

Bottle from BIAB while recovering shipments of meds for poor Night City residents. Very dark with a big tan head, Smoky chocolate nose. The flavor is rather sweet at first, fading to roasted malts and hints of spice. Vanilla is big, smoke is muted but tasty. What a great combination!

Black beer, thin head. Smells smokey and of a little coffee. Flavour is coffee, a little dark chocolate, some tangy fruit and the smokiness again. Not a hell of a lot else but it's decent.

Bottle from FinestBelgianBeers. Pours a murky black colour with a slightly reddish hue and a small soapy looking beige head. Aromas of roasted malts, chocolate, coffee, vanilla, oak and a slight smokiness. Taste is very similar to the aroma with the same notes and an added hint of rum raisins maybe. Medium bodied with a smooth mouthfeel. nice stout.

Dark brown with a tall, foamy head that lingers. Aroma of plums, smoke and vanilla. Taste is mildly roasted bitter with the smoked character becoming more dominant at the finish. Medium bodied, slight stickiness, moderate to mild carbonation. Good.
