Our Modern Belgian Dark takes on a traditional approach with a dose of local ingredients. Complex with rich malts that delivers strong aromas of caramel and baked bread, with a hint of spiciness. We switched out the traditional use of Belgian candy for local Vietnamese palm sugar to give a vanilla and toffee depth.

Siste planke på East West sammen med Kitty mars-19: lett uklar brunlig med kort skum. Knekk, mørke karameller, brente mandler, fiken og rosiner. Og mersmak, naturligvis!

On tap at East West, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out burnt sugar, Belgian yeast and biscuity malt. Flavour brings out burnt brown sugar, Belgian yeast and some dark fruitiness. Reasonably balanced, with a finish of burnt sugar. It's decent.

Tap at the Brewpub, HCMC. Poured a hazy dark brown with a round bubbly light tan head. The aroma is burnt treacle toffee, some alcohol. The flavour is moderate to light sweet with a rich spicy, red berry fruit, alcohol liqourice bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.
