Bottle. Nose is spice, yeast, a slight hibiscus note, straw, then sweet dough and yeast. Taste is spice, a dry woody note, rye, medicinal hops, citrus and a lot of coriander and pepper with a slight sour note in the finish. Far too fizzy. It’s a reasonable beer, I guess the dry wood and rye note is meant to denote winter.

500 ml bottle @ Patricks. Dark brown, not far from black body with a huge fluffy brown head that disappears rather quick. Aroma has dark malt, lots of chocolate, slightly roasted and hint of pine. The flavor is rather sweet light roasted malt, toast, fruit, pine, roast and bitter, dark chocolate with moderate bitterness otherwise. Medium body with a roasted malty aftertaste with more bitterness and hint of wood. Quite OK, not that impressive but slightly unusually and at least interesting.

Strong Dutch stout with coarse and loose, light beige head and black colour. Aroma of walnuts, fondant, whisky, cocoa, caramel, bayleaf, paprika and something strangely ’meaty’ or even ’fishy’ (fresh sea fruit - if I had to taste this blind, I’d suspect it to be an oyster stout). Sweet, candied onset with salty touch (soy sauce), hearty and umami flavour, thick and oily mouthfeel, a bit sticky, toasted bread and roasted bitterness in the end but not strongly coffeeish, bitter chocolate, herbal hops and warming, whisky-like alcohol. Very good stout.

Bottle from De Hopduvel. Light hazy orange colour, creamy foam. Disappears quickly. Lots of carbonation (too much!). Peppery with light notes of citrus and coriander. Bit watery. Overcarbonated. Not very good.
