Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is caramel malt, yeasty notes, dried fruits, some toffee. A touch of liquor infusion but it's not overpowering. Medium sweet, light bitter, hint of alcohol. A decent Belgian Strong.

Amberkleurig bier met mooie schuimkraag. Smaak is bitterzoet met iets van karamel, wat vanille en een beetje hout en blijft vrij lang hangen. OK.

Small if persisting white rim, fed by invisible carbonation in fully hazy yellow beer. Banana, some exotid fruit, chewing gum, almonds, sweet malts, bit perfumey as lemongrass. Sweet, restsugars, cardboard, oranges. White candi sugar, bark. Alcohol quite hidden, sweet aftertaste; better carbonated than it looks. Bit anonymous, certainly for "sensory heaven". De Proef seldom or never makes mistakes, but it is too fade. Txs to the girls @ the practice!
