Le brun cuivré éclatant de sa robe est le préambule d’un univers de douceur et de rondeur. Le nez malté, légèrement fruité, concorde parfaitement avec un goût orienté vers des saveurs « caramel ». Soutenue à tous niveaux, elle reste très équilibrée. Une très légère note de torréfaction nous surprend toutefois en fin de bouche. Première bière produite par la brasserie, sa rondeur rappelle le plaisir et nous invite à passer un moment simple de dégustation.

15th May 2017: 330ml bottle in De Bierboom, Brugge. Amber pour, off-white head. Easy drinking malty beer, fruity with a caramel like aroma. Semi-sweet malty flavours with again caramel to the fore: my sweet tooth liking this beer a lot.

Lots of foam when pouring. Pleasant aroma with resin, sweet fruity tones and hayish malt. Foamy palate. Flavour has grapefruity hops, biscuity malt, resin and mild mineral tones. The first sips were nice but then this starts to feel too hayish.

Draught wat Moeder SG. It pours clear deep amber/brown with a decent off-white head. The nose is sweet, doughy, fruit cake, dried fruits, candy, cereal and toasty grain. The taste is bitter-sweet, doughy, brown bread, muffin, musty, toasty brown sugar, candy, booze and wood with a pretty dry finish. Medium+ body, fine carbonation and oily mouth-feel. Not overly drinkable. OK.

Light brown with lasing head. Aroma and flavour are both malt heavy and have sweet, almost perfumed background notes.

Flaska från Saveur-Biere. Skummar lätt ur flaskan, murrig brun färg, mycket disig. Söt maltig doft med mycket bakjäst. Känns inte riktigt utjäst, söta murrig smaker av degspad och karamell. Bakom det finns en fin fruktighet med söta röda plommon och torkade aprikoser och på slutet en lätt beska. Stilmässigt kanske en belgisk amber, typ. Inte klockren men fruktigheten var trevlig.
