Aus der Flasche (bottled 01.10.2025/bbe 01.10.2030) im 2026-04 getrunken. Diese dunkelbraune Traum von eine dunklen Belgier zeigt deutlich den Ostflandern-Stil mit seiner feinen fruchtigen Säure, die sehr gut auf dem schweren Malzkörper passt. Klasse die Balance und diese Komplexität!

Bottle from Raynville Superstore. It pours near black with a small,. bubbly tan head. The aroma is rich and unctuous, oily and robust, dark chocolate, plenty of umami, savoury, liquorice allsorts, dried and dark fruits, fruit cake, date scone, slightly medicinal, burnt toast fruity whisky and some permanent marker pen. The taste is slick, thick, bitter - sweet, drying, dark roasted malt, charred, toothy, dark chocolate, chocolate fudge cake, umami, burnt toast, salty liquorice, dried fruits, malt loaf, toasted fruit cake, warming booze, touch of tannin, whisky soaked oak, dull medicinal character and some rocky road with a drying, chewy finale. Fullsome body, fine carbonation and slick mouth feel. Has Avery pleasing old school character about it. Defiantly savoury in comparison to today's tastes.

Surprisingly thinnish bod, dryish feeling. Low carbo. Pretty intense mix of barrels, with med whisky and sherry, med wood by itself. Med-light dried fruits, light caramelly, hint of red fruits. Overall mostly a barrel showcase, but a good one. Med warmth.
