Bottle courtesy of and shared with Tderoeck. BB 02/12/2019, batch# 2. Brune au col fin versant sur le café au lait et laissant un beau filament doré au verre. Arôme au nez malté tirant sur le grillé, caramel, et un effet Armagnac ajoutant de belles effluves fruités et presque tanniques de raisins. Petit rétro houblonné apportant une note fraiche. Palais est épais centré sur les malt chocolaté, cara et pâle, Armagnac est bien là sans être surfait et trop dominant. Le tout est agréable et ne comporte pas, comme trop souvent le cas, cet effet de levure belge qui enlève un peu du caractère recherché justement par la mise en fût. Petit amertume sur la fin avec un effet houblonné agrumes. Encore un bel effort de cette brasserie qui maitrise bien ses qcq versions barriquées. Base est le stout de Lienne Noir?
