Sweet stout brewed with Speculoos biscuits and lactose. Spectaculoos is White Frontier's homage to the eponymous spiced ginger cookie. And what could be more appropriate on 6 December than the traditional St Nicholas's day biscuit?

Bière 33 cl reçue je pense dans un calendrier de l'Avent. Bière noire épaisse, nez café torréfié et réglisse. Bouche torréfiée, cannelle, café et caramel, vanille, lactose. Elle semble bien plus forte que ses 4.5°, il y a de la matière et du pep's. Je ne retrouve pas vraiment le speculoos par contre, mais ça reste très sympa.

330ml bottle. Opaque, darkest brown colour with small, frothy to creamy, rapidly diminishing, beige head. Sweet-ish, slightly roasty and nutty, dark malty aroma, hints of wavers, cookies, roasted nuts, Kahlúa, some liquorice. Taste is slightly dry and bitter, roasty dark malty, minimally sweet and spicy, hints of coffee, roasted nuts, wavers, a distracting touch of cinnamon and ginger; some liquorice in the finish. Slightly unbalanced - I'd prefer the roasty dark malty part in coffee direction without the spicy speculoos adjunct.

Bottle @ Højbjerg tasting 27 July. Pours cloudy very dark brown with small light tan head. Clear aroma of malt and caramel, with estery and coffeelike notes. Sweetish flavour of caramel malt and chocolate, with lactic and roasty notes and touches of hops and yeast. Estery and and malty aftertaste with notes of roast. A nice one.
