Bottle shared by Inoven. Huge foamy beige head on top of an amber colored beer. Smell and taste malts, lightly bitter raisins, somewhat bitter in the finish. Hmm overall not very pleasant but I can empty my glass. A full bottle though, I probably wouldn't do that.

Bottle shared by Inoven. Clear dark golden to amber color, average sized off-white head. Smell and taste malts, some hops in the distance, lightly fruity, a light fruity bitterness, firm general bitterness. Well that's quite a surprise, especially given the fact that the label says "don't drink this anymore" (label says: best before end of 2016, tried June 10th 2018). Not a good IPA but I was expecting the worst. This is drinkable and kind of decent, at least for a slightly hoppy Belgian ale.
