1/8/2025. Bottle from Beautiful Beers, Bury St Edmunds. Out for my evening dog walk on a chillier evening and overhearing a fellow dog walker whistling "Santa Claus is coming to Town", this beer seemed an appropriate one to try when I got home. Poured hazed golden brown with a modest frothy off-white head. Aroma is sweet, malty, toffee, ripe fruits, sponge cake, yeast. Quite sweet to taste with developing, and slightly harsh, boozy bitterness. Medium plus body, smooth, average carbonation. Warming alcohol finish. Alcohol was not hidden. Nice aroma but booziness made it somewhat heavy work.
Served draft @ Estaminet La CH’TITE BRIGITTE in Lille. Quite good, although not too remarkable for a Belgian-style beer.

75 cl-flaska från SB. Gyllengul aningen disig vätska med högt stabilt vitt skum. Doft och smak av estrig frukt, belgojäst, marsipan, fläder, mousserande sött vitt vin, lite värmande alkohol. En ok stor belgisk blond som saknar lite elegans för att nå ända fram.
