Tap at Cafe hp. Clear amber light brown head. Nutty and caramelly aroma with fainter notes of dark dried fruits. Flavor is sour and fruity notes of apple and faint fermentation. Reminds me a little bit of flemish ale.

750 ml bottle. Chrystal clear, deep amber with a medium sized off-white head. Looks really great actually. Medium strong aroma of dry fruit, candy sugar, toast and caramel malt. Flavor is sweet mild caramel malt, dry fruit, candy sugar and a little toast. Medium body and sweet aftertaste with a little bitter hint toward the end. Quite plain and straight forward Belgium ale, but not bad at all. No problem finishing the bottle myself to a meal.

Bottle. Pours clear copper brown with airy but stable beige head. Clear aroma of malt and fruit, wit notes of faramel and touches of yeast and spice. Sweetish flavour of caramel malt, with fruity notes and touches of cinnamon and mild, hoppy hints. Estery and acidic aftertaste with some rough, matalluc hints. A little watery but drinkable.
