7.6/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Bottle bought at Bier van Ollier Festival. Hazy dark brown to black, thin, tan head. Aroma of sour cherry, balsamic vinegar, tobacco, almond, pear, raw ham. Taste has sweetish pear, plum & fig; estery profile mixing with toffee maltiness & sourish brambleberries, salty-umami undercurrent. Woody-tannic finish, faint herbal hops, touch of vinegar, peated & salty even, gentle whisky alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Belgian Stout indeed, drawing more from dark fruit esters than actual roasted maltiness, even leaning towards Flemish Oud Bruin (see Benoit Dark Soul 2021 too) although I don't presume it was intended (but I wouldn't call it infected). Quite rich at this ABV.
