Draft @ Brewdog Brussels.
Dorée, léger voile, col épais et crémeux blanc assez tenace.
Arôme est frais bien houblonné tirant sur les agrumes avec une pointe herbacée.
Palais est léger avec effet drêche sans pour cela être surfait. Très frais rehaussé par un houblonné sur les agrumes et le tropical avec une petite touche de fruits blancs. Feuille de thé en infusion procurant une fine sécheresse en fin de bouche. Finement épicé sur la fin - pointe mentholée. Une N/A sympa où, pour une fois, le côté céréales n'est pas trop dominant.

Draught Huge, bit irregular lightly yellowish head over yellow-golden beer, leaving textbook lace. Dry spices - coriander, chamomille - other grains/kernels. Again sweet & spicy. Finish is drier, but it sports a lot of restsugars. Again other grains, even such as buckwheat. Ever so slight acidity from the CO². Quite slick, medium carbonation, slightly oily feel. Seen the origins, I expected something out-of-the-box, but no, just a good, dry-ish Belgian strong blond.

Almost black beer, a head is medium and beige. Aroma has salt liquorice, liqurice, sweet dried fruits. Taste is very sweet, dates, raisin, liquorice. Full bodied, but not stickyness. Too sweet, but anyway, very nice.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours a dark murky reddish-brown, small off white top. Aroma has a sour red ale note with chocolate, something chemical, earth; interesting but odd. Taste of figs, berries, dark malt with chocolate edge, brown sugar, earthy hops with decent bitter kick; nice! I was worried from the aroma that this was going to be unbalanced but it works with a nice level of complexity. Medium bodied, rich but not overdone.
