Draft @ Brassigaume ’13. Orangée, col crémeux beige. Arôme est houblonné, citronné, malté et caramel, fruité moyen, fleuri léger. Palais est légèrement houblonné, malt moyen sur une note épicée. Malt garde ce côté farineux, pain le tout relevé par un malt pâle et caramel. Effervescence moyenne sur des pointes de citronné. Le tout garde ce caractère bien belge qui fait la signature de Forte. Houblons restent dans un style euro - noble. Se termine sur une note levure accompagnée de ce houblonné citronné.

Draft @ Brassigaume ’13. Cuivrée sur un trouble léger, col beige. Arôme est malté, léger biscuité, caramel le tout relevé par un houblonné fruité et fleuri le tout offrant un bouquet subtile d’agrumes - citronné. Ce dernier conserve cette influence typiquement belge. Palais est houblonné au premier abord, ensuite, le caractère malté vient relever le tout. Alternance belge entre un fruité noir, caramel, sucre brun avec un petit côté speculoos. Fini garde des pointes houblonnées herbacées pour une amertume plaisante. Les houblons restent de caractère noble.

Taste is sweet malts, caramel, toffee, jam, syrupy coupled with some slightly floral & fruity hops. Syrupy, thick. Not bad, liked it more than the score on RB would suggest prior.
