with roasted and bitter nuances. Like the amber ale it is unfiltered, unpasteurised and bottle
conditioned. The brewery utilises only natural products without any chemical additives.

Yeasty aroma and flavor with some orange. Just a bit sweet, even syrupy. Spices, says the label, but I can only find some curacao. Disappointing.

Bottle Hazy, deep amber-brown body. Nice frothy, off-white big head. Aroma of hops (grass - flowers), malts (nuts), white wine, perfume, apples as in apple cider. Quite complex. Flavour is int he beginning lightly bitter, lighlty sweey. In the end moderately bitter, lightly sour. Has some of the fruitiness of a flemish sour ale. Good balance, but not extraordinary due to a somewhat flat mouthfeel.

(Bottle 75 cl) Beautiful dark brown with a pronounced reddish glow - presumably filtered. Creamy, light brown head, which never completely vanishes but remains afloat on top of the beer. Lightly tart and metallic nose. Dry, lightly roasted malt, with pronounced tart undertones and a dry, lightly bitter finish. Vinous with a rather light body. Reminds me of the old style I believe is called "Vlaams bruin". Unusual but very delicate. 080605

[ZBF 2004] A clear brown beer with a fine but disappearing head. The aroma is sweet caramel with notes of wood and plums. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and roasted bread. It ends on a bitter hop note. A very nice beer.

(Sample 1.5 yr. old) Colour: dark brown with yellow-golden shine, which appears in the thick, irregular head. Roasted malts, mocca and some madeira or port in the nose. taste gives roasted grains or coffee, something smokey. Also some malty, full sweetness. Mouthfeel is surprisingly full for only 5.5 % ABV. Tends towards a lot of unfermented(able) sugars. Nor new aftertaste. Pretty decent beer, really. Deserves slightly more body and alcohol.
