Bier van hoge gisting. Dit donkerbruin bier met rode tinten is volmondig en zacht in de afdronk. De karaktervolle fruitige smaak wordt omlijnd door een zachte en fijne bitterheid.

Bottle from Cafe de la Gare, The Hague. Pours clear amber brown with a medium off white head. Aroma of toffee, a little dark fruit and malt. Flavour is dominated by sweet malt, sugar, caramel and some spice. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Not bad but overly sweet for the style.

On tap at Mort Subite (Brussels). Poured a brown beer with foamy and creamy light beige head of medium duration. Aroma is caramelly and sweet, with hints of toasted malts. Flavour is spicy, malty, dry fruits, brown sugar, caramel. Dense on palate with a sweet final moderate long. Carbonation is soft. Texture is dense and oily. Body is high.

Clear dark brown beer, slight reddish purple glow. Aroma of malts, some yeast, caramel and candy sugar. Some red fruits and slight sour touch. Flavour rather sweet, sweet malts, toffee, sourish touch. Finish sweetish but fresh. Quite OK, nothing brilliant.

Bottle at Zotte in Amsterdam. Pours ruby-purple-brown with a moderate, creamy head. Semi-dark, toasted malts in the aroma, plenty of fruits, berries. Medium sweet flavor, some notes of fruit punch, a hint of tang, light toffee, some candy and malts. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Faintly warming finish, mild tangy fruits, some rich bread. Lingering fruit punch. Decent, drinkable beer.

Bottle from beer planet. This one brings back memories from my trip to Belgium many years ago. Pours dirty dark brown. Nose of plum, caramel, candi sugar, yeast and dark fruit. Mouth feel is a bit thin. Taste is candi sugar, plum, caramel, earthy dark fruit and light dusting of yeast.
