On tap at the brewery Bergues. Hazy dark gold colour lasting white head. Perfume hop aroma. Some Belgian ester flavour. Some peach. Some hop om the aroma. Yes competent. Not quite clean but OK

Draught @ Westhoek Brewery. Pours a glowing caramel amber, patchy white head. Harsh alcohol nose. Flavour profile is also a bit harsh, boozy, mild furniture polish notes.. lacks the strong malty sweet warmth and I like from a strong ale, something clearly gone awry here.

Bottle 33cl. from the brewpub, Bergues @home poured into a chalice. Sweet boozy nose. Opaque pale amber colour, smaal fizzy off-white head, mostly diminishing, light lacing. Aroma sweet malt, alcohol, caramel, earthy notes. Taste above medium sweet and light bitter, malty, caramel, earthy and spicy notes, resinous hops. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation, sweetbitter aftertaste, husky notes, coarse impression, okay.
