Bottle, 6.0%. Aroma of dark malts and metal. Cloudy dark brown colour. Ok stable creamy light brown head. The flavour has some brown sugar and a medium bitterness to match. Nutty and roasted notes as well. Thin mouthfeel for the style and a little fruitiness which puts me off a bit, but all in all a decent beer.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear, dark brown with a neat, orange hue and a smallish, beige head. Sweet chocolate nose - milk chocolate combined with mellow licorice. Medium body, again sweet chocolate and toffee - no Belgian character whatsoever. And no hop presence. More some generic Dark Ale, a Dubbel it is not. 230521
