Red wine barrel aged edition of Notre Passion, from a 75 cl bottle shared by Stefan, cheers! Very thick but regularly shaped, frothy, lacing, egg-white head, very dark burgundy-tinged bronze robe, translucent, initially clear but hazy with sediment; does not really look very porter-like, frankly. Aroma of medlar, overripe blue plum, wet wood (almost furniture-like), burnt sugar, gooseberries, stewed red apples, old red wine, raisins, banana peel, caramel, dried mushrooms. Estery, fruity onset, stewed plums, banana and gooseberry, sweet with residual brown sugar and a sourish undercurrent, medium carbonation, soft and fluffy mouthfeel - but lacking the slickness and oiliness I’d expect from a beer called porter. Caramelly and lightly bready malt sweet middle, fruity esters persist and spicy phenols show up in the end, meeting a gently toasted bitter aspect - but again, not the amount of toasted bitterness you’d expect from a porter. Drying woody tannins in the end, some warming alcohol, a dash of earthy hops and, most of all, a clear red wine tartness lingering afterwards, as is often the case with wine barrel aged beers. Not a bad beer per se, but clearly a classically Belgian quadrupel rather than any kind of porter.
