Zijn complexe geur roept onmiddellijk die van brioche op met een toets van zoethout en caramel verrijkt met een vleugje gebrande aroma’s. Volle afdronk, bijna likeurachtige smaak van caramel alvorens de indruk van gebrande mout te geven. In de mond blijft een indruk van volmaaktheid die geschikt is bij het verorberen van een stukje goede kaas.

Old-fashioned Scotch, once very popular in Belgium, is still alive especially in Wallonia it seems (think of Silly Scotch and all its marvellous variants) - this one coming from what is literally the highest brewery in the country. Thick and frothy, yellowish pale beige, irregularly shaped, large-bubbled but well-retaining head, lightly misty caramel brown robe with vermillion glow. Aroma of caramel candy, butterscotch, 'Koetjesreep', brown bread, toasted chestnuts, dried thyme, clove, dried cranberries, vague cinnamon, baked banana, pear syrup, hint of nutmeg. Sweetish onset, dried-fruity with notes of pear, dates and cranberry jam, medium carbonated with very smooth, slick mouthfeel; caramelly core, brown-bready too with a touch of old ground hazelnuts. Herbal, tea-ish hops in the finish accentuating the toasty side of the malt profile, but this basic caramel sweetness remains dominant; bready yeasty effects, clove-like phenols and warming, 'jenever'-like alcohol further complement the finish. Decent example of its style, meets expectations without exceeding them in any way.
