Sterk amber bier van hoge gisting met een koffie-achtige start, daarna een zuivere fruitigheid en een intense finale. Goed gebonden hoppige droogheid. Geen dorstlesser.

Notes from early 90s. From tap (ABT Beer of the Month if memory serves me well. Dark amber (or light brown) color. Aroma’s: caramel malts/dark malts, sweet. Flavor: moderate sweet. Medium bodied. No new flavors in the finish. OK, but nothing special.

Along with the other Sezoens, one of very few top-fermented, authentic regional beers by Martens, not easy to find outside of its home town. Warm amber colour, delicate, subtle malt character, caramelly, with a certain complexity in the finish; also tasted as an old beer and I must say, ageing did it well, compared with the young version. Seems to have a certain Altbier influence, as the late Michael Jackson justly observed.

Bottle @ home. Clear copper / dark orange colored beer, small but vast off-white head. Smell malts, a little roasty, like a mix between a stout and a dark amber. Taste light coffee, malts, grains, yeast and some spices maybe? Suitable carbonation, medium body.
