10/IX/16 - 25cl bottle @ De Heeren van Liedekercke - BB: 30/VII/1992 (2016-1008)
Clear purplish brown beer, practically no head, just some aery bubbles, little stable. Aroma: heavily oxidized, lots of port and sherry notes, some rotten walnut. MF: no carbon, medium to light body. Taste: sweet and sugary start, very watery, lots of caramel, card board. Aftertaste: bit spicy, dusty, watery, sweet, sugary, very oxidized, orange peel, port notes. Very thin. It's spoiled.

Bottle at Kookfest 2006. Very dark brown/red, lasting beige head. Toffee and raisiny, sweet. OK but just way too sweet.

(Bottle 25 cl) A three grain beer with juniper is rather unusual, even for Belgium. Very dark, light brownish head. Lots of sweetness but not cloying due to the low alcohol. And the hops are indeed present as well. Strange but very pleasant. 010693

I love juniper so I'm all over this dark juniper ale. I got lost in Ghent trying to find the frickin' Hopduvel and when I got there I was parched. Why I bought this first I'll never know but it did the trick. Refreshing herbaceousness, smooth, sweet malt backbone, slightly full and oily body.

Red/brown ale. Strong malt aroma, and light vanilla. Smooth, very nice malt flavour, parfumed and flowery like some draught English ales. Sweet final.
