Bottle at ’t Antwaerps Bierhuiske. Smell of syrup and citrus. Amber colour, hazy. Bitter and citric. Rather much IPA qualities.

bottle from beer planet. clear yellow, smooth white head. Aroma is quite malty, slightly flowery, soemwhat sweet spicy, flavor is malty, hay, yeast, sweet spices, alc. flavor is a bit sweetish overall, but the high alc. as well as some bitterhopping makes it a little bitter and quite easydrinking. There’s this grassy hay flavor note that I don’t really like so much, but overall it’s pretty decent.

33cl, BB 18/06/2014. Cuivrée, col épais crémeux beige. Arôme fruité noirs, note sucre, caramel et léger biscuité. Palais conserve une belle présence maltée, sucre candi avec en retrait une fine pointe houblonnée en amertume. Levure typique belge laissant une note de renfermé. Fruits noirs, raisin, dates. Le tout termine sucre laissant un collant aux lèvres, sec voire poussiéreux, note biscuit malt.

33 cl. swing-top bottle shared @ home with t0rin0 and womencantsail. Dark brown amber with a big tanned head. Nose is quite interesting, herbal, fruity, caramel, burned sugar, dark fruits and indeed applesauce as mentioned. Taste is intriguing bitter copper with some lightly fermenting dark applesauce, bitter herbal, spice, caramel, dark sugar, light booze in the back. Big higher carb. Interesting, different, good. Maybe bit too much too easily drink but an interesting Belgian.

33cl bottle, BB 07/02/2014, courtesy of Alain @ Restobières. Dorée, col blanc fin. Arôme fruité avec ce côté orangé, fruits noirs et grains. Palais est réchauffant et de suite on note les 9.5% qui laissent un léger côté huileux en bouche, note de vieille levure, grains, fruité amer et notes de date ou raisin le tout étant épais et donnant également des pointes d’abricots et ananas. Garde ce profile épais de levure, le tout avec le grains et cette pointe de farine/pâte.

330ml bottle. Clear reddish amber colour with average to huge macropore to frothy off-white head. Caramel malty aroma with hints of dark berries. Slightly sweet fruity taste has notes of dark berries, caramel malt, cautious dry to bitter hop overtones, sweetness is well balanced by a tart fruity touch.

33 cl. flip-top bottle // purchased from ALBO @ home // deposit in half of the price of the beer itself which I thought was hilarious // golden, bright, rising bubbles, small, creamy, fluffy head // wow, that is a specific smell, lots of almonds, very almond (?) heavy, sweet, white bread, cornflakes, Belgian yeast, this very heavy smell, dominating everything that I know but cannot pinpoint, I think that it is almonds which I wrote down first // sweet almonds, almonds, almonds, white bread, Belgian yeast, decent amount of lemon, cornflakes, white sugar, bitter finish, touch floral in the back, bitter almond finish // fizzy // almond beer, seriously those are almonds, aren’t they? // odd, very intriguing

330ml bottle. Pours a very dark brown with medium head. Aromas of caramel, carroway, and malts. Flavors of candy sugar, figs, light tobacco, and roasted malts. Somewhat sweet but a good beer.

Sample at Eurostash III tasting on 01/12/2012: Bottle from Belgium Beers in Antwerpen. The beer is a dark reddish brown color with a medium light tan head that recedes steadily. Rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of dark cherries, caramel and cloves. Medium and slightly chewy body with a ripe fruity character and flavors of sweet spices, caramel and Belgian yeast. The finish is sugary sweet with a fruity aftertaste. Pretty good brew.
