1996 Bottle at kulminator. Pours yeastflaked, brown, not much head. Smell is apples, port. Taste is sweet, port, some dark malts. Very oxidized in a nice way. Still very sweet, fairly complex. A good example of how age can treat a beer well.

Pretty aged beer... Full of UFO’s in chestnut-brown beer, with small yellow-cream head. Portwine, walnuts on Marssala, studentenhaver , blue cheese rind, dried apricots. Dry first impression, with immediate sweetness behind; full of esters, fruity; higher alcohols & ethanol. UFO’s are really tactily traceable. Very heavy bodied, certainly for such an old beer, but not syrupy. Superbly aged - undeniably better than when young - when it was fairly average;

Bottled. Dark amberish brown colour, mediumsized, longlasting head. Beriies and fruits in aroma along with weak hints of alcohol. Flavour is caramellish and sugarym but still quite bitterish with fruits. Mouthdrying.

(Bottle 33 cl) Another Van Steenbeerge brew made from a recipe from De Hopduvel. Pale brown with lots of impurities making this slightly muddy. Decent head. Some roasted malt and slight chocolatey notes. Rather well balanced. Decent if not exactly sophisticated. 170398
