Bottle courtesy of Kraddel @ Post Toer de Geuze tasting. Brune foncée, col fin café au lait. Arôme est agréable, oscillant entre malté, cara chocolaté sur une pointe de banane et possible pointe de lactose. Palais est ici plus mitigé, la banane est fine et couverte par un chocolaté peut-être trop en avant. Le tout reste très léger et rien ne vient ici être trop surfait. Note de moka, café au lait/grillé, pointe de douceur vanillée pour une fin de bouche ayant une touche d’amertume houblonnée. Fini sec, sur un chocolat toujours présent.

Courtesy of Kraddel. 75 cl. bottle sampled. Blackish murky brown with instantly gone beige head. Odd sweet, old lacto, green banana peel because I am looking for banana, light roast, huge on cocoa and chocolate cookies. Huge on lightly bitter cacao roast, choc powder is most dominating taste, light white sugar and vague sweet additives, almost lactic, hint condensed milk, odd bitter milky choc. Body is powdery feeling. Not the ST fare I was hoping for, doesn’t really deliver.

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of thgr81_us. Pours an opaque deep, dark brown with a small off-white head. Sweet roasty nose, and yes - perhaps a whiff of banana. Medium body, subtle roast, salty (?!) with no real bitterness. Enjoyable though. 150313
