Sampled in the brewpub in 2008, sold there at that time as Grand Place Dark. Off-white, thin, creamy, quickly dissolving head, colour yellowish bronze, cristal clear, transparent with little sparkling. Aroma of caramel, nuts, peach, orange peel, vague hints of nutmeg and liquorice. Neutral onset, quite strong carbonation, light orange touch, caramel and nut-like maltiness, thin and quite obviously without any dark malts (artificially coloured), slight hoppiness in the finish, brief.

Average Belgian dubbel beer. Fruity, sweetish malty and yeasty. Decent, not special.

Sampled with ChinoSkillzian, t0rin0 and Womencantsail as part of their flight - draft sample @ brewpub - sold as Dark Beer. Loots dark amber, off-white head. Smells like sweet caramel, toffee, metallic with burned sugars. Taste like Jagermeister blended with cough syrup, licorice and iron, some burned sugar and spice. Medium bodied - only one drinkable of the flight but albeit only in small sips savoring like a fine liquor.

Sample tray at the brewput. I guess if you get over the shitty service, this beer could become enjoyable. Cuivrée, fin crémeux/beige. Arôme malté, fruits noirs, léger garde un bouquet de levure et de brèves notes de houblons. En bouche, fruitée noir, malt cara, le tout sur une fine note sucrée oscillant entre malté et amertume fruité. Générique et ennuyante à souhait.

On draught at Les Brasseurs in Brussels (as "dark beer" on the English-language menu). The beer pours clear brown with a medium thin light beige head that dissipates steadily. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of fruit and bready malt. Light body with flavors of sweet malt, cherries and yeast. The finish is short and malty. Pretty average overall.

Fra fat på brewpuben 7 Mai 11. Dyp brun. Lavt skum. OK frukt & karamellaroma. Syrlig fruktig smak med innslag av karamell. Fruktig ettersmak. For søt.

Draught @ The Brewpub. Rated on 19.07.2010
Rather light aroma is sweetish with caramel and ripe fruits. Flavour is sweet and light with caramel, ripe fruits and hints of spices. Too light stuff.

On tap at the pub, named Dark Beer in the menu, 120ml, being one part of four samples served on a tray. Clear, ruby-brown with a beige bubbly ring at the top. Plain sweet malty aroma. Taste of caramel malts added by candy sweetness. Notes of alcohol. Very average (Brussel, 07.05.2011).
