Bottled, thx Pajo! Slightly hazy, lightly brownish ruby body, off-white head, not that big. Huge, pungent aroma, banana, sweet maltiness, some peachy esters, bubblegum, juicy almost. Lovely taste, bubblegum, banana, sweetish dark caramel maltiness, light anise, mildly yeasty in the finish. Excellent for a Dubbel. Huge props! Their best beer!

Almost lost rating. Bottled, with Hrabren and some, thx Pajo! Clear red body with a pinkish off-white head. Lovely aroma, spicy with light notes of anise, mainly raspberries, a touch of hibiscus perhaps. The hibiscus is more noticeable in the taste, with light raspberries and fresh anise. Very drinkable, props!

Almost forgot to rate this... 0.75l bottle, thx Pajo! Hazy pale brown body, thick, small ivory head. Cinnamon dominates the aroma, some yeasty touches. Lean, soft taste, quite creamy and drinkable, nutty malty touches, light anise and cloves, less cinnamon than in the aroma I guess. A pretty solid spiced ale, I liked it!

Tap at Le Petit Belge. Almost clear golden body, white head. Pleasant fruity, estery profile, spicy herbal hoppy undertones, malty background. Lean, dry taste, subtle bubblegum, peppery herbal hoppy finish, not much aftertaste, lightly hoppy. Though it's by far hoppier than expected. Nice enough! Need to rerate the Blonde.
