bottiglia 33 cl, schiuma scarsa fine beige evanescente, color ambrato velato, al naso malto caramello spezie uvetta si avvetre l'alcool, in bocca malto caramello uvetta datteri zucchero di canna, corpo strutturato, oily, dolce, carbonatazione piatta, amaro deciso lungo nel finale. Buona ma l'avrei preferita un po' piu carbonata, alla fine diventa stucchevole. 24.02.18

Birthday bottle from Dranken Geers, Oostakker; thanks to Anke & family!
Best before: April 2017.
Pours clear yellow with a small, white head. The aroma contains grapes, apple, wheat, grass, some lemon and yeast. It tastes light to medium hoppy/grassy bitter and light fruity sour. Dry finish. Medium body, watery texture, soft to flat carbonation. A very unusual Witbier, almost like white wine.

Tap at Il Punto. Sweet stewed fruit in the nose, peaches and orange, apple, honey, biscuits. Orange-golden, hazy. Sweet flavor, honey, fruit, pepper, grapefruit and apricot. Not hot, but peppery. Works well with a bit of a burn. Soft, thin, fun.

Very nice porter, perfect example of a simple brown porter. Pours dark brown with lots of head, this dissipates after a while though. aroma is restrained but classic of a porter, with dark malts and chocolate in the foreground, some liquorice and even some smoke being hinted at. Mouthfeel is of medium body and not thick, a bit boring maybe. Flavours are very classic again and similar to aroma, dark malts, chocolate, coffee, liquorice and some toffee. Finishes short and roasty. A very nice example of a classic Porter!
