Thick-set, irregular amberish cream coloured stable head over viscously pouring brown-black beer. Coffee, I Café Noir /I cookies, mocha, sweet malts, sweet meatroast. Sweet & roasty, very little bitterness until a woody finish. Dark green leaves, hint @ tobacco, and again coffee-flavoured cookies, but the finish is more coffee drab. Thick MF, slick to viscous, chewy, warming. Good carbonation. Bit too sweet, not bad. Txs to Stef!

Keg at If It Ain't Dutch, It Ain't Much, Bermondsey 27/10/23. Extremely dark mahogany brown with a beige cap. Nose is chocolate flakes, mellow roast, charr, dried fruit rinds. Taste comprises toffee, chocolate, spice, brown bread, mellow roast, fruit cake mix. Medium bodied with bite, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a kiss of alcohol. Okay sipper but lacks depth for the ABV.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 26/01/2027.
Couleur cuivre, col très épais tenace blanc-cassé.
Arôme rend de fins effluves de malts avec une bonne dose de grillé, caramel, avec un effet crystal malts/Vienna. A cela s'ajoute un léger fruité noir et une amertume tranchante qui se marient bien avec un côté grains concassés/malts - petite touche houblonné oscillant vers le mentholé et de suite suivi par le malt.
Palais est sur une base de malts oscillant vers le chocolaté - caramel, grillé, et une base céréales qui reste assez centrée sur le côté belge. Amertume franche en fin de bouche avec une pointe d'épices qui se profile en fin de bouche. Le tout est sec marqué avec un rebond houblonné assez sec en fin de bouche et qui augure une inspiration noble belgo-anglaise.

Fles gekregen van Roelzie, geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een helder diep donkerbruin bier met een volle beige schuim. Het heeft een aroma van gebrande mout en chocolade. De smaak is gebrand, moutig, caramel en chocolade.

10 April 2022. At 14de Brugs Bierfestival. Cheers to Anke & Pieter!
Hazy black, stable, frothy, tan head. Aroma of earth, walnut, mushroom, toast, prune. Taste has sweetish prune & fig; herbal, earthy & umami (mushroom) notes in a soft toasty malt body. Earthy hoppy finish with roasted coffee and some spices, dash of warming whisky-like alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Bit too herbal and 'vegetably', probably befitting a BIPA more, but otherwise flavourful.
