Loads of smoke! Way better than the regular. Smoke doesn't overpower the rest, and doesn't taste fake. Powerful and flavorful.

One of these new Groningen Bax beers, a coffee-flavored dubbel apparently brewed in Belgium. Bottle shared by Craftmember at Belgium Chimipalooza. Moussy, off-white, creamy head, hazy burgundy bronze robe. Aroma of candi sugar, pear, caramel, elderberry, hazelnuts, subtle coffee grounds. Soft sweetish onset, banana, raisin with a blackberry-like sourishness underneath, toffeeish and mellow bready malt sweetness in the middle, bit yeasty, herbal hoppy touch without great bittering power in the finish, residual candi sugar sweetness, little bit sticky, and again coffee grounds in a very subtle form, appearing as a coffeeish whiff retronasally. Bit thin on the palate, and needs more coffee and less residual sweetness to shine.

hazy pale yellow colour, moderate off-white head; aroma of citruses, peach, maybe some overripe tropical fruits, too; taste is also very fruity, with perfect balance of hopy bitternes and malty sweetness; good beer, though not as ’citrusy’ as I expected based on its label (’Citrus Pale Ale’) and the used hops

Bottle from Biernavigatie. Dark brown/black colour, beige foam. Roasty, smoky, some caramel. Very well balanced. Very nice rauchbier!
