White label : Experimental Porter from Brouwerij Brochus

7.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
At Winter Beer Fest 2017, Waregem. Shared with Anke!
Hazy black with a small, off-white head. Aroma of licorice, dark fruit, dark chocolate, some coffee, caramel. It tastes light malty sweet and medium roasted bitter; very light toasty finish, a bit metallic. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Good, but I wouldn't say it's that experimental.

At Winter Beer Fest 2017, Waregem. Shared with Anke!
Hazy brown with a small, off-white head. Aroma of yeast, cookie dough, wood, wine and port. It tastes light yeasty sour and light to medium bitter; yeasty, dry finish. Light/medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Very straightforward in aroma and taste, not very spectacular, as the name would suggest.

Bottle at Modeste 2017. Bottle 17/18 . Pours clear, dark brown. Not much head. Smell is sharp, rather intense chili. taste is rather intense peppers, quite a bit of heat, but no overkill. Decent body and carbo. Finding the outher barriers of the delicate balance of spicyness.

Thanksl! Sampled bottle @ Modeste 2017. 21 bottles made. Dark brown amber, tanned head. Nose is interesting coffee grounds, almost spiked, pine tree, low empty. Lightly fizzy, bit thin bodied. Body is not optimal but interesting coffee grounds, powdery low chocolate, spices, interesting spice, overripe cherry, messy & not the ideal body but pretty interesting, my favourite so far from these guys. Interesting one even if I didn’t really get the chilli but I suppose it added the interesting spice notes but no heat for me.

Thanksl! Sampled bottle @ Modeste 2017. 23 bottles made. I agreed to a yeast shot in my sample after getting the question whether I objected to one from one of the brewers. Ugly murky with tanned head, my ad. Nose is murky dead heavy, cold powdery old stale chocolate. Bit empty somewhat BE with stale old chocolate, yeasty, empty malty, powdery,… Powdery & yeasty bodied. Not very exciting.

Thanksl! Sampled 750 ml. bottle @ Modeste 2017. Dark brown to black, little tanned head. Nose is metallic, bit empty stale leaves, hint of gravy, almost wet dog, yeast. Taste is empty leaves, plastic, yeast, grainy, gravy. Body is yeasty, low gravy. Not my thing & didn’t remind me of something like Fuller's London Porter or other English Porters that come to mind. 24 bottles made.
