(33cl bottle) Hazy, dark amber colour with a beige and medium-sized foamy head. Sweet, moderately roasty malty aroma with caramel, chocolate and subtle berry-fruity (blueberry) notes . Roasty bitter and malty sweet flavour, medium to full bodied with a soft carbonation. Roasty malt-character with caramel and a tinge of chocolate; sweet and roasty bitter, slightly alcoholic finish with caramel. Reminds me rather of a dark Bock than a Belgian Ale (13.IV.09).
