Christmas beer. Actually brewed at the Watou site nowadays (at 7.5% ABV), but placed here because of its origins in the Boezinge site (at 6.8% ABV).

Flaske fra Belgisk Bryg: klassisk højt skum, aroma av overmodne plommer og brunsukker. Hvorfor denne er klassifisert som scotch ale og ikke belgisk bruin er uklart. En avdempet humle og diskret sødme gjør sitt til at det er ingen grunn til å vente helt til jul. Rund og fin ettersmak, men allikevel slank for sine 7,5.

Van ’t vat bij Le Bier Circus. Roodkeurig amber, tikkeltje donkerder, solide med. witte kraag. Ruikt naar zoete karamel, wat drop vermengd, tikkeltje synthetisch, plastieken toets. Smaakt naar zoet siroop, drop, tikje hoestsiroop, kruidendrank, karamel, toffee, zoete kruiden, lichtjes plastieken fruit en wat mout. Lichtjes kleverig en wat minder gas mondgevoel. Okay, interessant, beetje nep.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Ariel’s place. Thanks beerandbeyond. 75cl bottle. Brown-colored with a foamy beige head. Sweet fruity yeasty aroma with a bit of spiciness. Sweetish flavor with yeast, caramel, fruits, spiciness and a drier alcoholic finish. Light to medium-bodied.

25cl brown bottle, with a snowy, wintery scene on the label, very pretty. Poured into a thisle shaped glass (Gordon Finest Gold). The beer is a deep, deep ruby red colour, the head tan. Lacing held onto the glass nicely. The smell is of roasted malts and liquorice roots, the taste too. Rich and almost creamy in the mouthfeel, the best beer from Leroy I’ve ever had (not difficult to be honest, we don’t seem to get on too well). Held up to the light it shows a clear, if dark body, with plenty of life in the glass, it also feels well carbonated. Belgian Christmas beers are always a joy to drink, this one slots into that bracket well.
