Aux arômes de fruits rouges et de malts légèrement caramélisés, la Fagnes Brune est douce et onctueuse.

Bottle. Pours clear brown with a medium tan head. Aroma of caramel, light herbs, slightly metallic and a little dark fruit. Flavor is over moderate sweet and moderate bitter. Some fudge, toffee coming out in the palate. Medium bodied with light carbonation.

33 cl. bottle sampled thx! to Kraddel.BBF 01/03/2014. Pours a ruby dark brown with some tanned bubbles. Nose is liquorish, sweet herbs, caramel, light bread, something metallic-like. Taste is bitter herbs mixed with coca-cola, faint but not bothersome iron, bark, sweet dark bread, touch caramel & cheap chocolate candy. It is a bit like some odd coca-cola with light spices. Med. to lighter body. Not stellar but I expected much worse, this is an okay & mildly enjoyable drink.

25/III/13 - 33cl bottle from Comptoir des Fagnes (Couvin, BE) @ home - BB: 19/IX/14 (2013-267)
Clear red brown beer, irregular beige head, unstable, little adhesive. Aroma: lots of caramel, sugar, cola-like, lemony touch, very artificial. MF: ok carbon, light to medium body. Taste: bit sugary, some caramel, little bitter, spices if not much. Aftertaste: sugar, bitter hops, some liquorish, very watery overall, bit metallic too. Crappy and probably cheaply produced beer. Not a fan.

Slightly astringent finish on this brune, leaves sour taste on palate. Wine/cola aroma, dark but clear brown, with airy head that leaves lots of lacing on the glass. Taste...prune juice? The sweetness sets this one apart from the pack of Belgian brunes....

25 cl bottle @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, BBE 09.01.2014
Aroma is really sweet with brown sugar and toffee typical to aged belgian ales. Flavour is sweet with lots of brown sugar, some toffee and hints of malt. Fels like a sugar candy. Way too sweet and sticky stuff.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm) Dark brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with dried fruit, raisins, prunes, crisp-bread, brown sugar and hints of chocolate. Malty, fruity taste with notes of raisins, prunes, dark bread, brown sugar, liquorice and a mild spicy bitterness. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Hardly exceptional, but solid and well made. Quite nice.

Bottle: Deep reddish-amber coloured, clear, small off-white foamy layer, sweetish caramelly-toasty nose with a fruity tinge; moderate sweet flavour, sticky MF; lingering sweet toasty-fruity finish with a slight bitter touch in the aftertaste. Too one-dimensional…
