(Draught at L'Ermitage Nanobrasseri, Brussels, 21 Oct 2023) Black colour with creamy, beige head. Malty, roasted, vinous nose with coffee, chocolate, liquorice and lemon. Malty, roasted, tart taste with notes of coffee, dark chocolate, lemon, grapefruit and a mild roasty bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Rich and tasty, with an interesting lambic touch. Very nice.

Pours black, small layer of slightly tanned head. Scent is mild, roasty. Taste is roasty, light, dark chocolate and ashy grains. Lambic funk remains very hidden. Very decent, but would have enjoyed more lambic.

EB Quintessence Trip April 16-19. Dark sours are tricky even if they’re made by Jean van Roy.
