Hazy deep red with a huge beige head. Aroma was sweet with fruits, caramel and toasted malt. Flavour was sweet and yeasty with caramel and roasted malt. Finished sweet. Not bad.

75 cL bottle. Pours cloudy dark amber to brown with a fizzy off-white head. Dry malty and slight spiced aroma. Sweet malty, subdued caramel and mild fruity flavoured. Mild bitter note into a medium sweet finish. Nice and easy.

Bottled(750ml). -from Belgian Beers, Antwerpen. Bottle No. 1541
Opened with loud pop, pourd huge off-white head that went away slowly. Clear amber coloured, malty, light spicy peppery nose. Few streams of carbonation. Malty, fruity, light spicy and somehow watery. Also light alcoholic notes in the finish. All in all, I’m not really satisfied with this beer.

0.75l bottle courtesy of and shared with ogivlado who got it in Antwerpen. Poured an enormous off beige head that almost completely covered the lovely dark amber/red body for a while. Heavy malty nose, with some chalky spice. Bready. The taste is lighter than expected. A light, but very nice silky maltiness that ends wine-like before revealing some slightly warming alcohol. The taste continually shifted between the appealing malts and the unappealing alcohol and that kinda ruined it for me. Shows potential.

Irregular dark beige head, smallish over deep red-foxy beer with a brown haze; shards of lace. Cookie malts, herbal & yeasty; some meaty esters, as from young beer. Not really sweet, not hoppy smelling. Dry, fleetingly near wry-bitterish, with a sweetness behind that is clearly, or at least for a great part like unfermented worts. Still the flavours work out, achieving balance. Again spicy touches - dark malts, root spices. Not very heavily bodied, some alcohol. Pretty carbonated, if not as excessively as the Golden one. Rather OK, one I think would benefit hugely from some aging.
