Buffalo 1907 is een bier van 6,5% abv met een koffiezwarte kleur en stabiel beige schuim. Het bier geurt naar karamel en chocolade. De smaak evolueert van karamel, over een licht gebrande toets en eindigt in een zacht-bittere afdronk.
Brewed since 1907, when the near-complete staff of the brewery went to see the circus of Buffalo Bill, leaving the boiling brewing kettle to the care of the youngest employee. This boy let the beer roast and caramelise on the bottom of the kettle, but after trying, everybody actually liked the "spoiled" beer, which became the brewery’s staple diet.

Slight cherry and pear fruitaroma. Roasted malt and pear in the flavor. Some caramel. Good lacing, but rather thin. Not an entirely clean palate, but that does no harm to this beer.

Zwart bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is licht bitterzoet met iets van chocolade, karamel en bosvruchten.

Fles, thuis. Lekker muf bakkie. Smaakje doet me denken aan een Rochefort, maar ik zou ’m er naast moeten proeven om te checken of dat ergens op slaat.

Tap at the Delirium Cafe, Brussels. Poured a clear dark brown with a bubbly off white head. The aroma is rich sweet malt, light chocolate, light smoky notes. The flavour is moderate sweet with a slightly light, roasty, burnt treacle, yeast, ight hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Fairly drinkable but a little light and lacking flavours that I like!
