Mega obrzydliwe piwo, spodziewałem się zupełnie czegoś innego po Gordonie. Miedziano czerwony kolor zupełnie bez piany, a co najbardziej denerwuje i przeszkadza to zbytnia słodkość i etanol dominujący wszędzie: w zapachu i smaku przedewszystkim. Mocno alkocholowy posmak co mnie odrzuca totalnie

330ml bottle. Pours a dark reddy brown with a thin head. Aroma is grassy, skunky and sweet, caramel malt. Taste is sweet toffee to start, with a raisin finish and a skunky, grassy aftertaste.

getrunken Anfang 2012
Das Rote war eine positive Überraschung. Es war auch recht süß, auch hier bestimmte das Karamell -ein bisschen Spekulatius mochte ich auch erkennen. Auch andere süße Backwaren wie Bisquit oder Lebkuchen ließen sich interpretieren. Hier ist man nicht auf der fruchtigen oder hopfig-grasigen Seite, sondern eindeutig auf der malzigen -aber das ist gut ausgewogen. Ein wirklich feiner, süßer Belgier.

50cl can. Love me concert beers on a parking lot, refined flavours? Couleur rousse, col beige/blanc. Le tout reste très doux avec ce relent de faux sucre E150 bien indiqué, et ce profile cerise industrielle. Note de grains et caramel avec un fini dans les normes de houblons nobles laissant ce profile typique métallique. Je donne le bénéfice du doute, la moins mauvaise de la série, mais ça reste de la grosse production avec un publique bien ciblé, genre les dehors de la gare centrale de Bxls.

December 2006 review from BA: I bought this can from a Night Shop in Brussels, as I staggered back to my hotel after an evening of beer tasting. Thank God I didn’t drink it that night, or my head would have exploded. There would have been blood all over the bathroom mirror and all sorts of problems with getting my body home etc. The 8.4% alcohol takes over this drink completely. It looked very good, poured into my Gordon’s Thistle glass. not really red, more a copper/amber colour, but bright and clean looking. Caramel and yeast, no other aroma. Strange taste, not an Irish Red, nor a Belgian Red, more like a dark lager, sweet, but also a dryness which takes away the flavour of malts and hops. A battle between the sweet and dryness is not won by either side and the aftertaste just goes. I would rather have two tasty 4.2% beers than this alcohol laden brew, but as a one off, not a bad beer.

This is surely a Belgian Strong Ale??? Deep red-brown colour. Aroma has sweet red fruits, syrup, jam. Flavour is similar. Low carbonation. Quite silky but also a bit thin.
