Bottle. Almost black. Coffee and apple syrup in the aroma. Malty sweet flavor with coffee, apple and cinnamon. Too sweet, but decent enough.

French stout, it sounds a bit contradictory, but the brewery was apparently founded by a Belgian. Light beige, creamy, thinnish, not very stable foam, colour a very dark burgundy, not entirely black yet. Lots of cooked red cabbage aroma (DMS) apart from black coffee, iron, bitter chocolate, quite strong liquorice (effectively applied here), candied dates. Dried fruits in the mouth, metallic with rather flat carbonation and therefore rather thin body, chocolatey and lots of liquorice, toasted malts, some roasted bitterness, quite short finish. Perhaps I’ve been spoiled too much by big imperial stouts but I cannot say I really enjoyed this.

I carried this back from Paris. I believe the photo is my bottle. Very dark brown color. Hazy. Cold coffee and grain flavor. I can’t smell or taste any licorice. Unpleasant aroma of dust. Nearly flat. It sucks to haul a beer 5,000 miles and find it to taste like this.

Draft @ Moeder Lambic. Couleur noire, col café au lait. Arôme malt grillé, sorte de fruit noirs, malt noir, le tout restant très faiblard. Bière est douce voire trop sucrée avec touche houblonnée laissant une amertume qui est trop en retrait. Le tout garde un profile malt, grillé, grains, fruits noirs qui est faible, tout comme la carbonnation qui est bcp trop faible pour apporter à cette bière toute consistance. Le tout reste trop léger avec une pointe de réglisse et rappelle un style allemand qui pour moi est bcp trop doux, avec trop de sucre résiduel et loin d’être dans le style stout.

Bottled@The Chriso Pre-GBBF Shindig 2011 "Donkey Dork Lord Edition". Deep amber, close to black colour, with a mediumsized beige head. Aroma is caramel malts, mild roasted notes, some alcohol as well as liquorice. Flavour is big time liquorice, mild roasted notes along with some sweet riped fruityness as well. Balanced and nice flavour.
