Bottle, 33cl swing top. Except for the sediments in the bottle, it was a clear, reddish-brown beer, with a small, beige head. Some sweetness in the aroma, as well as dried fruits, but it was a rather boring one, considering it’s high alcohol and origin. Sweet flavor with dried fruits and alcohol. Maybe a bit one-tracked, but I like it. The alcohol were present in the finish too, but well hidden, overpowered by caramel and roasted malt. Full-bodied, quite effervescent. I prefer it’s sister Boerinneken, but this one’s good too. (080112)

Bottle, 33cl swing top. Pours a clear, except for floaties, golden body with a small, white head. There’s lots of sediments in the bottle. Sweetness, citrus, tea and spices in the aroma, quite lovely. In the mouth there’s warming alcohol, sugary sweetness, pale malt, hops and some grains, and it finishes with pale malt and citrusy hops. Full, warming mouthfeel. Better than it’s brother, but not much. (080112)

Bottle. Thanks to Fonefan. Pours unclear orange with a great white head that leaves some handsome lacings. Aroma is yeasty & fruity. Exotic fruits/citrus, a bit of alcohol & yeast dominates the taste which is a bit dusty malty. Soft, smooth & filling body. Warmth from alcohol. Sticky/oily palate. Very drinkable strong Belgium!

Bottled. A deep red beer with a thin brown head. The aroma is sweet and quite spicy combined with strong notes of caramel, as well as notes of over ripe fruit, prunes, and some yeast. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel sauce, alcohol, prunes, over ripe fruits, yeast, and brown sugar, leading to a slightly alcoholic, dry, and woody finish.
