Black color, small head. Light aroma of roasted malt. Good mouthfeel, quite smooth, with a respectable body strength, with roasted malt flavor only, but well balanced from beginning to end. Quite good.
2009-04-03, bottle from Au Grain d’Orge, Crissier, 5-3-6-3-11=28
Black color; nice head. Light aroma, better flavor; roasted malts and light caramel, correct bitterness. Correct beer, but no thrills.
2005-07-23, 5-3-6-3-11=28
Black color; almost no head. Light bread aroma, very light roasted malt. Light body, light roasted malt, very light sourness. Quite strong, dry, bitter finish (roasted malt). Rough.

Beautiful dark copper color; small creamy head. Delicate caramel notes in the aroma. Light sweetened caramel flavor, with a drier final, correct bitterness. Easy but balanced.
