Bottle from Bierboetiek De Zythotheek, Valkenburg. Caramel malt upfront with spicy yeast, brown malts, spices, notes of raisins and brown sugar. Flavour is mild to medium sweet, light bitter. Body a bit thinner than I'd like.

Bottle 0,33ltr: Dark brown colored brew with sweet bitter taste, mostly bitter. Hints of caramel, banana, dried fruits and spices. Now this beer had to be brewed in Valkenburg itself, to counter against that silly quote.
