33cl Bottle from Hopduvel Gent. Ruby-black colour, beige head. Aroma of berries, wood, burnt caramel, dark fruits, a bit Flemish Red-like minus the sourness, chocolate and a hint of coffee, metal. Flavour is sweet, malty, aspartam, wood, light tartness, dark fruits, light metallic, some coffee, alcohol. Medium-bodied, over-carbonated. Not great, and far from a stout imho.

330ml bottle. Very nice, clear, ruby red twinkling, black colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, moderately lacing, off-white head. Dark malty, slightly grainy, minimally fruity, yeasty and vinous aroma, hints of pumpernickel, black cherry, plum and rum. Taste is vinous dark malty, minimally sweet, fruity hints of plum, black cherry, biting hints of alcohol, lively carbonation. Concerning taste it’s more a Porter than a Stout imo; apart from that heavy, fruity, vinous, prickling-biting.
