Viven Bruin is an improvement of the original recipe. The fine balance between malt and spices creates a surprising aftertaste. Brown ale with an aroma of chocolate and caramel.
This beer is the perfect meal companion. Properinge hops.

33cl Bottle from ABS Drinks Winksele, ABV 6.1%. Reddish dark brown colour, off-white head. Aroma of caramel, raisins, plums, cocoa, light roasted malts. Flavour is likewise, dry, a bit dusty, not as sweet as the aroma suggests, bitter cocoa finish. Light-bodied. OK.

Bottled. Ambery brown colour with a mediumsized white foamy head. Aroma is caramel malts, some ripe fruits, mild toffee and slight wooden notes. Flavour is sweet malts, caramel, toffee and mild herbal and ripe fruity notes. Also some mild spicy notes as it warms up a bit. A bit watery as for the palate.

Bottle @ Bier Tempel, Brussels. Pours clear dark amber with a fluffy head and lacings. Nose is hops, grain and caramel. Quite fresh. Malty caramel, grass and bread. Very well brewed and balanced. Smooth and full bodied with a long finish. Nice.

Cloudy brown beer. Thick off white head. Light frothy palate. Milk chocolate malt with a little coca cola sourness. Finishes light and soft. Good but in the shadow of the other beers from this brewery.
