After enjoying their "Patriote" that was also a limited edition, I was quite disappointed by this one... reminding me of their other regular brews. Not sure what hops they use, but they seem chemically induced with some light orange notes in the aromas. The bad grass also shows in the taste with very mild wax in the finish. Looks decent with a hazy golden-amber colour, warm cap and some nice lacing... but overall gross. Highly "not" recommended.

Bouteille 660ml. De couleur ambrée et claire. Nez de grains de céréales sucrés, d’épices (clou de girofle, notes de cannelle), léger de levures fruitées (agrumes) et de sucre candi avec des notes de houblon herbeux. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-élevé ainsi qu’une texture moyennement huileuse. Goût épicé (clou de girofle, notes de cannelle, traces de poivre) avec un léger goût de levures fruitées (agrumes, traces de marmelade) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de grains de céréales sucrés, moyen de sucre candi avec des traces de pain puis en finale l’on retrouve une très légère amertume de houblon herbeux avec des traces d’alcool sucré. Post-goût moyen-long, composé d’un goût moyennement épicé, léger de levures fruitées (agrumes et notes de zeste) avec un léger résiduel de malt sucré ainsi qu’avec des notes de houblon herbeux.

Aroma: A mix of spices with a touch of cereal. Cinnamon, clove, Candi sugar, accompanied by a little touch of meat. A sweet and spicy nose, within style but missing a bit of power. Appearance: Gold, very clear, average thickness head, average density, long lasting, no lacing. Taste: First attack is showing up cereal with a slight acidity. Accents are sweet: Candi sugar, crystallized fruits with a touch of cinnamon and light lemony notes. Mouth feel is round, full and texture slightly creamy. Missing a bit of sparkle for a Belgium ale. A much sweet ale, round, slightly acid with notes of cereal.
