75cl bottle courtesy of and shared with Tderoeck. Not sure the light sourness was intended to be described as authentic BE dark ale. Maybe an accidental oud bruin? BBE 12/31/2017. Acajou, col fin blanc-cassé versant sur le jaunâtre. Arôme au nez rendant de suite de fines effluves surettes, rappelant ainsi le cassis, les mûres avec un petit rétro chimique. Fruité aigrelet, avec un effet levure belge restant bien marqué. Palais sur une effervescence très haute, fruité noir, un effet suret perdure rapprochant cette bière plus evrs une vieille brune que une dark BE ale, était-ce là le but recherché? cela en reste cependant correct.

1/IV/17 - 75cl bottle from Huyze Vacas (Waterland-Oudeman), shared @ Seb's Short Visit Home Tasting (my home) - BB: XII/31/17 (why on earth are we using USA date format in Belgium???) (2017-413)
Little cloudy reddish brown beer, creamy beige head, pretty stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: sourish, infected, nail polish, paint thinner, dirty acidity. MF: soft carbon, light body. Taste: sour start, very chemical and unpleasant bitterness, green apples, bit roasted. Aftertaste: sourish, bit metallic, bitter, more roast, funky, quite some tannins.
