Fair enough hoppy beer at this alcohol level.
But it felt a bit thin.
Decent enough as a thirst quencher.
Malty, herbal and citric

Unclear golden body under a white head. Aroma has malt, oranges and spicy belgium yeast. Taste is sweet smooth soft malt, oranges, belgium yeast and hint of alcohol. Fine body and pleasant aftertaste. Like a combination of a fruity saison and a belgium triple. Not too sweet and refreshing fruity with a spicy touch. Highly enjoyable.

(Bottle) Black colour with brief, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with dark bread, oak wood, bourbon, blueberries, mint chocolate, coffee and liquorice. Malty, roasted, sweet taste with notes of dark chocolate, blueberries, oak wood, bourbon, dark bread, a touch of mint, caramel, coffee, vanilla and a mild cacao bitterness in the finish. Full body, sweet. On the sweet side, but rich and tasty, with lots of chocolate, blueberries, vanilla and mint. Very nice.
