Tap @ Schooltje. Pitch black color. Brown head, stiff, good retention. Aroma’s: whisky, whisky, whisky, vanilla, tannines. Retronasal it’s whisky & fruit. Flavor is moderate sweet, whisky, alcohol. Rather strong alcohol feel (but not like 13%). Medium to full bodied. Long finihs. Really way too much whisky, where’s the beer?

Pours pitch black with a good dark head that acts stable. Smell is intensely sweet. The bourbon blended perfectly with the beer, whixh makes it hard to tell which one has the upperhand. Taste is intense, indeed clear bourbon up front. Just whem you think this beer aint balanced, black albert kicks in. And how! Mildly bitter, very much vanilla. A huge difference with the regular cuvee delphine. And this one is even better. That is a high thing to live up to,but damn, this one does the trick! I stand amazed once again, urbain and co!
