Takie nie do końca, dużo tu zabrakło, na pół gwizdka. Suszone owoce, karmel, to dobrze, ale brak tu wyrazu, jakby rozwodnione.

Poured from 330mL bottle (bb 22/11/2022). Medium dark amber brown with small light beige head. Taste has a ton of burnt caramel, mild Belgian yeast, light molasses. Nowhere near the great Belgians, but it's okay. Rounded up to a 3.3 rating for this one.

A l'instar de la Satan Gold, nous retrouvons dans cette Satan Black l'esprit brassicole belge, mais d'une façon aseptisée. Dommage car celle-ci reste néanmoins agréable voire avec une complexité pas inintéressante. Mais une fois encore, l'alcool n'est ici pas assez vif ou tonique et les arômes manquent de plénitude. Le visuel est sur un brun foncé surmonté d'une mousse brun clair de 5 mm. Le nez essaye de copier certaines quadruples sur la poire, pomme, prune, caramel, candy, l'alcool et de légères épices. Très belge et agréable. L'attaque est quelque peu brouillée par l'effervescence trop vive. L'amertume est également relativement poussée, faisant passer les arômes maltés en second rang. On retrouve en bouche le cocktail présent au nez avec une complexité honorable mais un alcool, à 8 % dans la retenue. Par la suite, l'amertume faiblissant, l'intensité aromatique est plus appréciable tout en restant en deçà des références du genre. Corpulence et longueur sont acceptables. Le final est même long, mais très calme...Surprenant pour un diable.

330mL bottle, pours a deep dark brown / near-black with a medium tan head. Aroma brings out lots of candi sugar, Belgian yeast, a little leather, and molasses. Flavour is dry and burnt, with molasses, plenty of candi sugar, a decent expression of Belgian yeast, and burnt caramel. Lower residual sugar than it most seem, which means the balance it solid. Not the most complex Belgian strong, but it seems better than the average here. Good.
