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).

draft @ Delirium, Brussels. Brunâtre/ambrée, col épais beige. Arôme profile typique belge, fruits noirs, sucre candi côté pâteux, levure et houblon fleuri qui me rappelle un peu la roquette. En bouche, malt agréable sur un profile pâteux, fruits noirs, figue/date, malt pale et caramel, le tout sur un houblon légèrement amer. Possible note de réglisse qui vient ajouter une touche épice et un côté bien belge pour bière de Noël.

Draught @ De Bonte Koe, Leiden. Hazy red color, average sized off-white to beige head. Smell herbs and spices, cinnamon and lightly sweet. Taste herbs, malts, spices. Not as full as expected from a christmas beer. Average carbo, medium body.

Bottle from Ieper, shared with the Croatian crew obviously. Poured a murky red-brown body and a small slightly off white head. Light grainy creamy malty taste, dry, ordinary. Sweet malty taste ending dry. Oookaaay, not bad but so damn, well, as I said, ordinary. Hides the alcohol well though.
