Draft at In De Wildeman. Pours clear medium brown with an off white head. Aroma of caramel, veggies, light herbs and overripe dark fruit. Flavour is moderate sweet and bitter. Medium bodied with light carbonation.

Bottled. Hazy golden colour with a huge white head. Aroma is yeast, some fruits, mild metallic notes as well as some slight gluelike sweetness. Flavour is fruity, nectary, floral, mildly alcoholic along with yeast and some mild earthy, toffeeish and spiciness to it. Still rather crisp maltiness to it.

Bottle. Black with small and fast disappearing off white head. Chocolate, sweet nuts, roasted grains and smoke. Vanilla and stone fruits. Medium sweet with light bitter and smoked finish. Medium to full bodied. Quite nice components, but somehow it doesn't all work together really well. Still a decent enough beer though.

Clear dark amber brown colour, two finger lasting frothy tan head, recedes slowly to a thick layer, good lacing. Aroma rather shy, lightly smoked malts, cocoa, caramel, bit woody, hint vanilla. Smooth taste, moderate sweet, roasty light bitter, smoky, chocolate. Full body, creamy texture, soft carbonation, mild smoky aftertaste with lingering bitterness, sweet caramel notes, some oak. Very good subtle smoked bock, very good.

Bottled (from Biernavigatie). Hazy orangeish amber colour with a mediumsized white foamy head. Aroma is toffee, fruits, some floral and earthy notes with some mild yeastiness. Flavour is fruity, floral, a bit tart wooden notes as well as some slightly spicy yeast to it. Gets thicker and also a bit "worse" when it warms up from being fridge cold (atleast with the yeast poured in).

Bottle from het Biermoment, BB 27/05/16, large sample, served in a tulip glass. Clear golden color, big rocky white head. Aroma is very estery, spicy, flowery, bit grassy, quite malty as well, perfumy, cardamom? Slight sweet, bit dry, bit spicy, bit bitter. Quite balanced strong blonde. Not too sticky or too malty, but seems to get it quite right. Yeast esters give most of the character together with the hop. Decent stuff.

Dark brown with small off-white head. Amok and ash, roasted grains and some nuts, sour red berries, juniper, pine and light touch of rotten wood. Quite light feel and not a lot of sweetness, mostly light tartness and some bitter in the finish. Quite nice, but like most smoked beers I prefer it with a cigarette, without the smoke of the beer is a bit too much for me.

Slightly hazy golden with small white head. Sweet malts, big spices with lots of white pepper, pine, soapy, also strong yeast with typical Belgian aroma. Light lemon. Very nice mouthfeel, medium bodied with great light prickly carbonation. Very good blond.
