La Caracole présente un dégagement gazeux important et une mousse abondante et compacte, tenant bien. Au nez, elle offre des arômes de houblon et quelques notes de marée. Elle est un peu piquante en bouche ; on ressent tout d’abord le houblon et une légère torréfaction. Elle est aussi marquée par quelques pointes de fleurs d’oranger, de moka et de réglisse. En fin de bouche, on distinguera une belle amertume équilibrée et prolongée. Première et plus ancienne bière de la brasserie du même nom, la Caracole est également la plus produite des protégées de François Tonglet.

Flasche (75 cl), 1-2 Jahre im Keller gelagert. - Helles Goldbraun, trüb. - In der Nase Karamelmalz, süße obergärige Fruchtigkeit (Pfirsiche) und bittere Kräuter. - Antrunk weich karamelsüß mit süßsauren Zügen. Anflüge von Orangenlikör. Gut rezent. Im Abgang krautig herb und leicht säuerlich. Trockener, würzig-herber Nachtrunk. - Eigenartig würzig-herb, säuerlich, mit Anflügen von likörartiger Bittere. Unkonventionell und erfrischend.

Fra flaske (fra Belgisk Bryg) på RBHD-samling på Tau okt-14: lys kobber. Kort hvitt skum. Kokte bær i aromaen. Røde bær og nellik i smaken. Varmer i magen. Slank kropp for sine %. Uinteressant.

Shared 330 ml bottle at local tasting, ABV is 7.5%. Cloudy orange colour (i had the yeast poured in), white head. Aroma of over-ripe berries, also some cheesy notes. Bland and unfresh flavour, hints of over-ripe berries. Not good.

Sparkly beer. Mildly sweet smooth body. Some caramel and a slight metallic taste. Boring.

Ein wirklich gutes Bier mit vielen feinen Aromen nach Obst (das zugegebenermaßen schon etwas länger gelegen ist) und einem malzig-süßen Abgang. Fein verwobene Aromen mit mäßiger Bitterkeit. Dazu noch eine nett gestaltet Flasche. Klare Empfehlung von mir.
