A black beer, a head is medium and brown. Aroma has liquorice, richness of maltyness, some barrel, dried fruits of prune, some vanilla. Great aroma. Taste has liquorice, dried fruits, barrel, some vanilla, bitterness in the end. Almost full bodied, not stickyness. This is pretty nice version, easy to enjoy.

Bottle @ Find your own beats. Pours Black with a small beige head. Pretty low carbonation but you wanna pour hard to keep a good head on your Struise beers: Dilemma. Massive roast, rum, licorice, Wood, coffee and chocolate. Smooth and dry with a roasted finish. Nice sipper. One of the better in the Series.

0.33 l bottle from 'Etre Gourmet', 2020 vintage, bottled in November 2022. Pitch black with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently roasty, fairly boozy and a bit fruity aroma of lots of rum, dark chocolate, licorice and some coffee. Quite sweet, malty, fairly roasty, slightly spicy and minimally fruity taste of dark chocolate, coffee, licorice, rum, alcohol, juniper and some burnt bread, followed by a long, rather roasty-bitter, gently boozy finish. Full body, smooth and slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Interesting beer but doesn't convince. Have had far more pleasant rum BA stouts than this one. Still far from bad.

30/III/23 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ Bieroloog bierproeverij, BB: +5Y, bottled: 4/XI/22, vintage 10/XI/20, lot: 20220056 (2023-280)
Pretty clear dark brown beer, small creamy beige head, pretty stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: lots of soy sauce up front, pretty oxidized, spicy, tobacco, earthy, some caramel, dried fruits, chocolate notes. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: a bit sweet first, good roast, oxidized, bitter, hoppy touch? Lots of alcohol, coffee, a little smoky, sweet, caramel, oxidized. Aftertaste: soy sauce, alcohol, bitter, a bit sourish, more alcohol, some rum, a bit dry, some tannins, nice!

Flaska från Beergium, vintage 2017. Kolsvart, tjock med krämbrun krona. Toffee, salmiak, läder, lakrisal, svarta vinbär, kakao, muscovadosocker, lätt kärva toner, torv. Väldigt mycket fat, åtstramad och tämjd kropp. Samtidigt känns det inte vasst på något sätt och kroppen är fint rund och mjuk och upplevs inte alls som uttunnad. Gott.
