Bottle from Lekkerbier, Sint Nicolaasga. Aroma is chocolate, barrel, roast, whiskey, some alcohol, some red and dark fruity notes. Mild bittersweet flavour, body could be a bit more full. Still, pretty nice BA.

I Draught /I Dense, good and layered white to yellow-cream head over virtually black beer. Roasted, burnt, chocolate, but also a tad soapy. Molasses syrup. Very roasted, sweet-bitterish, dry roast, breadcrust. Sweet is enhanced by the alcohol, but it has no boozy character whatsoever, whisky is hard or not traceable at all. Bit almondy. Well-bodied, almost no alcoholwarming, slick to viscous feel. Maybe a tad too restrained.

Sampled at Billie's 2018. Black with lacy head. Aroma and flavour have roasted malts. Also a light forest fruit sweetness. Very boozy.
