Brown bottle, 0,5 l, batch 234, brewed on 190206, best before 190207; eyey: voluminous pale beige head made up of average size bubbles that eventually fades away to leave a ring around the glass, burnt orange with caramel reflections, hazy, no effervescence, quite a bit of lacing; nose: quite hoppy after pouring the beer but the smells disappear after that, leaving a grainy malt and a bit of leather that becomes more present as the beer warms; mouth: disappointing first sip, the beer is too cold and not that flavourful and even thin, surprisingly it starts in malt, then no tastes, and finally the hops attacks, it will never leave et will stay in a long finale where the leather will also presnet, light astringence at the end, quite bitter, medium body, grainy texture, good carbonation; overall: correct FRANÇAIS Bouteille brune, 0,5 l, batch 234, brassée le 190206, meilleure avant le 190207; oeil : mousse beige pâle abondante et faite de bulles de taille moyenne, orange brulée avec des reflets caramel, voilée, pas d’effervescence, pas mal de dentelle; nez : pas mal houblonnée après avoir versée la bouteille mais les odeurs semblent être disparues, il reste un odeur de malt granuleux et d’un peu de cuir qui devient de plus en plus présent à mesure que la bière se réchauffe; bouche : déception à la première gorgée, la bière est froide et peu goûteuse et même très mince, curieusement elle commence en malt, puis une pause, et finalement le houblon granuleux qui attaque, il ne partira plus et restera présent dans une longue finale où son côté cuir apparaîti, légère astringence à la fin, pas mal amère, corps moyen, texture granuleuse, bonne carbonatation; en résumé : correct

Thin white head. Hazy orange-brown body. Deep yeasty caramel aroma with spicy, milky notes, and some slight tobacco. Deep, milky pure caramel, toffee, and yeast taste. Dryish tobacco and toffee aftertaste. Not bad, but clearly too old, despite the best before date of 2009. (0.5l bottle. Brewed March 2004.)

Pitch black with a small and disappearing brown head. Quite an overwhelming aroma with coffee and chocolate, mint, wood, hops and licorice. Sweet and thick initially, but soon taken over by hops and roast grain. Awesome experience with lots of nuances.
