Aus der Flasche (bottled 05.02.2020/bbe 05.02.2025) im 2025-04 getrunken. Diese doch sehr klassiche Stout hat eine klassische Stoutröstaromen. Und auch wenn der Honig sich im Aroma oder mit einer Süße nicht bemerkbar macht so hat er sicherlich die Röstbitterkeit sehr gut balanciert. Ein tolles und doch klassisches Stout!

Small tan-mossy rim over dark cola-coloured beer. Bourbon, raisins, boerejongens , old wine, preserved cherries in alcohol. Dry, holly leaf, old wood, Bourbon, raisins, roosvicee, ending more sweet. Quite heavy & oily, dense, bit syrupy. Alcoholwarming. Aha. Here's a relatively recent De Molen that is in the best Menno Olivier tradition. Not that it helps its demise. Txs to Stef!

On tap at Arendsnest, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out fermented out honey and medium roast in good cohesion. Flavour reveals plenty of honey, plenty of fermented out honey, and medium roast. The honey doesn't seem all that well integrated. A bit rough and lacking integration and complexity. Disappointing, especially for De Molen.

Tap. Black color with off-white head. Aroma is bourbon, a lot of bourbon juice. Taste is the same, a bit tart even, jammy. Thick oily mouthfeel with natural carbonation. Not exactly amazing.

(Draught at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 7 May 2022) Black colour with brief beige head. Malty, roasted nose with sweet espresso, treacle, chocolate, oak wood, vanilla, bourbon and a touch of candy sugar. Malty, roasted taste with notes of sweet espresso, dark chocolate, treacle, dark honey, oak wood, bourbon, vanilla and a sweetish finish with a mild roasty bitterness. Full body, quite sweet. Sweet, rich and powerful. Hardly shy, but really tasty. Very nice.
