Bottle shared at Zozo's. Pours black with a beige head. Nose is a fucken apple pie with cinnamon and orange zest, I swear it smells like a freshly baked pastry. Taste is basically the same, apples followed by bready-biscuity malts covered in chocolate topped with cinnamon and orange peels. It's literally a liquid dessert, its only flaw is that body-wise it's a bit too thin, if had more of it it could be literal world class in my book. If they pulled this off without aromas, this is truly mindblowing, amazing job.

Bottle from BiervanEijk, Frederiksoord. Aroma is sticky caramel and dark malt with orange zest, chocolate, cinnamon. Fudge, toffee. Flavour is rather sweet, medium to full body. Very nice.

Bottle. Pours cloudy very dark brown with airy tan head. Clear aroma of chocolate, with touches of malt, yeast and fruit. Bitter, roasty onset, giving way to notes of dark chocolate and touches of tart apples and orange peel. Spicy finish with dry touches and notes of fruit and chocolate. Warming alcohol presence. Yummy.

Bottle, 10.0%. Distinct chocolate and orange peel aroma. Black colour, oily-looking, and seems cloudy. Small frothy light brown head. The flavour is sweet and spicy with a refreshing orange note. Powdered chocolate. Some sugar, spicy, but still. Mostly milk chocolate, but has a little dark chocolate in the finish.

Bottle, 3 months past bb. 1st glass at 13C, maybe a little colder would have been better. Black, a tan head retreats swiftly to the rim. Aroma of spiced mocha, dark roast. Lots of cinnamon. Oily, lowish carbonation. Only fairly sweet but with loads of chocolate, marked with orange, vanilla and cinnamon. Getting the apples in the aroma now, not so much in the taste. Bitterness is sufficient to lift away a lot of the sweetness but the cinnamon remains. Very good.

33cl can, BB 11/10/2024, merci Willy, part de son xmas box dont il n’aime pas les stouts.
Brune foncée/acajou, col fin crémeux beige.
Arôme sur un bouquet fruité chocolaté avec un côté pomme caramélisée – douceur de lactose, pastry puff avec un effet dessert caramel/chocolaté gâteau, biscuité, torréfié. Je ressens un peu moins le côté cannelle.
Palais est sur une base de porter clairement présent avec un malté sur le carapâle, chocolat amer mais de suite repris par une douceur latente dont du lactose où s’ajoute un apport de cannelle délicat, mais présent, et une petite touche acerbe de pomme et ce retour frais du zeste d’orange. En retrait, retour de ce caractère apporté par la pomme – en compote d’où ressort un fructose latent.

Chocolade bom met flink wat sinaasappel, matig bitter, melkchocolade, snap die groen appels niet, gooi die gewoon lekker in een cider man niet in bier 🤷♂️ Verder behoorlijk plakkerig zoet allemaal...
