Bottle from a Carrefour in Bruges. Pours hazy dark brown with a quickly dissipating, but lasting, thin, tan head. Aroma of raisin, licorice, blackberries, dried prune, pear syrup, caramel, cake, cold tea. It tastes medium malty sweet, rather fruity, with raisin & prune, backed by faint caramel & dough. and light herbal bitter, tea-like, a hint of spicy licorice, even a faintly toasty accent. Dryish, herbal hoppy finish, malty, lasting burnt caramel. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Unremarkable Dubbel but nice enough.

33cl bottle in the Bier Paleis, Brugge on 16th May 2018. Hazy amber body, white blanket of bubbles on top. Slight yeasty/spicy nose on a bed of fruity esters. The taste also a mixed bag of fruitiness, yeastiness and spices. Liked it.

29 April 2018, at Zythos Bierfestival. Deputy Taster: Anke.
Clear dark amber with a small, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of caramel, candi sugar, raisin, bready malt, cookie dough. It tastes medium to heavy malty & dough-like sweet and light to medium spicy bitter, bit herbal & caramelly. Dry, caramelly, (herbal) hoppy finish with warming bourbon alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, lively carbonation. Rather cliché Quad but okay.
Mooi aromatisch biertje. Licht bittertje met karameltoetsen.

At Nationale Bierhappening in Zottegem. One of the beers in this Flanders Fields series intended to commemorate the First World War - an initiative from a brewing company seemingly set up for the occasion, with this one being executed at Van Eecke. Very thick and frothy, tightly lacing, egg-white head, misty chestnut brown robe with coppery hue. Aroma of dried apple peel, brown sugar, soggy brown bread, ripe apricots, moldy hazelnuts, banana, sweet strawberries and some wet dog. Sweet and sugary onset, lots of candied fig and strong banana ester sweetness, sourish redcurrant-like side note, fizzy carbonation but still more or less tolerable for the style, caramelly and bit resiny malt body with a metallic tinge to it; softly herbal, tea-ish hop bitter note in the end alongside earthy yeastiness, phenolic spiciness and a lot of warming, rum- and port-like alcohol. Quadrupel in the La Trappe sense of the word, amberish coloured, boozy and very sweet but technically decent.
