Voici le genre de bière quelque peu compliqué pour moi. Cette 1818 qui s'apparente plus à un Barley Wine est en effet très sucré me rendant compliqué la dégustation (que je n'ai pas pu finir). Je ne peux cependant pas lui nier de très grandes qualités gustatives avec de très grosses densités et complexités aromatiques. Assez remarquable. L'alcool également, à 10 % tient la route et structure bien l'ensemble. Le visuel est sur un ambré foncé trouble pas exceptionnel, sans mousse. Le nez est très riche sur l'amande amère, le raisin, la figue, le caramel et une pointe d'épices. On retrouve ces arômes dès l'attaque avec une prise en bouche remarquable mais avec une lourdeur certaine. Petit bémol sur le final qui retombe quelque peu. Pas fan pour ma part, mais très bien réalisé et les amateurs de liquoreux se feront plaisir.

Bottle. Golden pour. Aroma of yeast esters, malt, coriander, wheat and orange peel. Taste has fresh wheat, yeast esters, orange peel, coriander and a little bitter grassy hop. If I had to guess, I would say this is a witbier. Allright.

Oranjegeel bier met schuim. Smaak is zoet en ietwat kruidig met iets van abrikoos, zuurtjes en kandij. Fijne hop bitterheid die het geheel afmaakt.

Bottle brought back from the brewery - thanks, mom & dad! Pours clear dark golden with a stable, small, foamy, off-white head. Aroma of ripe orange, apricot, banana peel, wet pepper, turnip, glue, vague mint. Taste has sweet banana, orange & apricot, residual white sugar in the back, a bit weirdly glueish; bitter pepper, herbs & yeast for balance. Dry, grassy hoppy finish, fruity yeast & spices with warming jenever-like alcohol, a bit too strong. Medium body, oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Some unpleasant aspects here and there.

Bottle brought back from the brewery - thanks, mum & dad! Pours hazy amber with a thin, off-white head. Aroma & taste have brioche & caramel malt, plum, red apple, sourish red berries underneath, a bit herbal bitter. Lingering caramel maltiness in the finish, herbal & even earthy hoppy in the very end, good for balance. Medium body, oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Likeable Vienna.

Bottle brought back from the brewery - thanks, mum & dad! Pours hazy dark golden-orange with a small, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of toffee, biscuit, cake, brioche, orange peel, green tea, iron. Taste has sweet toffee & mandarin in cake-like maltiness; bitter tea accent, slightly nutty, tad metallic even. Dry, grassy hoppy finish, herbal & sugary tea-like, lingering toffee. Medium body, oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Nice balance between herbal & toffee profile.

Helder oranje rood bier met een medium witte schuimkraag. Het heeft een fruitige wat kruidige geur. De smaak is fruitig, mango achtig met een peperige afdronk.

Huge thanks to Erzengel for sharing this one! Bottle looks simple but really good. Beer in the glass dark black, huge head. Fine roasty-spicy aroma. Starts intense malty, notes of liquorice, wood, some bitter chocolate. Well balanced finish, warming malty, still with fine notes of liquorice. Nice one!

'Dubbel' by this rather quiet but reliable brewery in the province of Drenthe in the Netherlands, shared with Craftmember. Medium thick, frothy, pale greyish beige, membrane-lacing, mousy head on a crystal clear bronze-mahogany brown beer with coppery tinge, turning hazy with sediment. Aroma of cocoa powder, old gingerbread, date wine, dried peach, ground hazelnuts, brown bread, nutmeg, prunes, tea, toffee, pear. Sweetish but remarkably clean onset, some fig and prune notes, hint of baked banana, medium carbonation, vague sourish undertone; smooth mouthfeel, hazelnutty and bit milk-chocolatey maltiness, very slightly toasty-bitter here and there with a tea-ish herbal hop bitterish tail even though most of the 'finishing' bitterness comes from the malts; light powderiness and dried fruit notes linger. Interesting: I expected a Belgian style 'abbey' dubbel, but what I got, is a much more generic, less yeasty and much more malt-forward ale that bears many more resemblances with Anglo-Saxon style brown ales than Belgian dubbels. Not bad in that sense, but underachieving a bit compared with other Maallust beers I had before.
