21 August 2021. At Gents Bierfestival. Cheers to the Ghent beer crew! Cloudy black, stable, frothy, beige head. Aroma of chocolate powder, mocha, toast, prune, coffee nib, cashew, vanilla, vague tobacco. Taste has sweet fig & prune in a chocolate-malty body, cashew accent, toasty middle with bitter chocolate powder. Earthy hoppy finish, spicy, coffee roast & fondant, dried fruit, sweet lactose hint & warming rum-like alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Bit of a mishmash of everything but certainly not bad.

Head gone in seconds; virtually black beer. Not much nose, just a faraway aroma of dried-out chocolate; bit of coffee, old cookies. Chocolate with a touch of chili, cinnamon and a spoonfull of coffiedrabs. Slightly smoked and stearine wax. Very slick, at least medium bodied, viscous. OK, but the idea might have yielded more.

Veel teveel koolzuur voor zo'n soort bier. Hopelijk is de ergste koolzuur er snel vanaf. Meteen ook een beetje een ijzersmaakje door de prik
