Dumpy 33cl bottle: BB Aug 2021. Obtained somewhere in Belgium, most likely in De Bierboom, Brugge; but can't be sure. Anyway, opened and drank at home on 9th Feb 2021 after a mini American beer tasting with myself. This beer poured a dull and deep ruby red, almost black in fact, the head not worthy of mention, it disappeared so quickly. Malty nose with a peppery/fiery hint. The taste is also malty, again with a leaning towards hotness and fire, yet it's suggestions rather than actual heat or chilli/pepper flavours. It's a strange one all round, but I really enjoyed trying to find the esters and flavours of this beer. I had been saving this for a Beer Share in Shrewsbury, but because they have been stopped I've had to sink this all on my own: How sad!
