26/IV/14 - bottle or tap? @ ZBF 2014 (Leuven) - BB: n/a (2014-421) Thanks to the Belgian Ratebeer crew for sharing today's beers!
Note: well, I guess this is just one of those love-it-or-hate-it beers. I hated it.
Clear orange beer, small yellowish head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: very dirty, urine, rotting fruits, unpleasant to disgusting. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: oooh that's dirty, sourish, little fruity, very unpleasant, I really get urine taste in this. Aftertaste: sourish, dirty touch, bit woody. Man, this was really bad.

Bottled, BB = empty, large sample. Clear redbrown color, big frothy light brown head. Aroma of burned caramel, sugary, spicy, slight chocolate. Heavy on the yeast esters, but quite ok for me at the moment. Bit sweet in taste, caramelly, sugar. Quite dry finish. Typical belgian product, focusing on caramel malt and loads of sugar. At least this one is much better than the blonde version. The caramel makes up for quite a lot I guess.

#400 Belgian Strong Ale. 75 cl. bottle split by 4. Procured from Willems. Neat looking, rather elaborate label. Hazy orange amber, almost tad murky, solid off-white head. Nose is overripe dark fruits, oddly touch lactic / yoghurt, quite odd, sugar, quite yeasty, noticeable alcohol. Taste is overripe dark fruits, quite yeasty, malt rich, overripe banana, noticeable alcohol is a bit too overt, touch roast in the back but otherwise little if anything at all in the way of a barrel. Unbalanced & doesn’t entirely work. Carbonation is a touch too high. I really enjoyed their “From Hell” but this one was a bit disappointing coming down from that one expecting this one to be basically a BA “From Hell”.

I wanted to like this. I can tasteh burnt malt and the heavy roasted character, giving it some coffee taste, but overall the intense burnt malt is overwhelming. Dry finish.

Huge, fluffy off-white head with shards of lace over dull copper-amber beer. Citrus & alchol, spicy with only a very faint roast touch. Alcohol is very prominent; cocoa powder. Bitterish-woody; combination of cooa powder & sweet chocolate.Finish has again a (rather raw) serious alcohol touch. Warming up, again citrus - mainly sweet orange; Burning MF, well-carboanted, very slick. Medium to better bodied; Certainly not bad, but it is quite strangely different from what the blurb might lead one to expect; And there’s quite a bit too much alcohol in the perception for perfect balance

mega gusher, zo extreem heb ik nog nooit één gehad, wat er nog over was, zag er wazig oranje uit met schuimige witte kraag aroma: mout en zoet, meer kon ik er niet van maken smaken: redelijk zoet, matig bitter, matig sterk, licht fruitig, redelijk moutig, matig kruidig, hoppig, citrus en wat grapefruit van de hoppen medium body, dun van textuur, normale co2, niet bijzonder
