Another new microbrewery in the province of Liège, more specifically Waremme, nortwest of Liège itself and bang on the language border (and therefore also carrying a Dutch name: Borgworm). Foamy, egg-white, dense, cobweb-lacing head on a hazy amber-tinged ‘dirty’ peach blonde robe. Aroma of fried red apple slices, ripe peach, clove (4-vinyl-guaiacol, strong here), fresh croissants, thyme, nutmeg, tea bags, yellow raisins, honey, minerals (wet ‘petit granit’ stone), cooked meat to even chicken stock note in the background. Fruity onset, sweetish with lots of esters, hinting at pear, peach, pineapple and red apple, moderately carbonated with full, bready-sweetish and lightly caramelly maltiness under a layer of honeyish residual sugars, flavours which eventually become a bit ‘blurred’ by strong yeasty effects with phenolic spicy aromas varying between clove, thyme and nutmeg, as well as ‘meaty’ proteins and other ‘dirty’ effects. Soft floral hops provide mild bitterness as the honeyish sweetness from residual sugars slowly fades – but still these sugars win in the end, as this beer is somewhat less hop-forward than average for a Walloon ‘ambrée’. Feeling altogether genuine and artisanal enough, though, as I was expecting considerable yeastiness and phenolic spiciness to begin with; still it would benefit from a drier and more hop bitter character, I think.
