Thought I had rated this beer before, not the case. I now have a 330 ml bottle from Belgian’s Finest Beers ready to open and pour. The tulip glass receives a liquid that is a dark cola color with a swell, creamy head of a quite light, tan head that is repeatedly recharged. I smell cherries, dark fruit and dark bread. I lift the glass for a drink, raisins, grain, yeast, malt, plums and fruit cake. A nice dark Belgian ale in the middle of the summer.

Bottle from HavnensVin&Tobak. Pours opaque dark brown with huge light brown head. Aroma is roasted malt, caramel, brown sugar, prunes, raisins, dried apricot, soy sauce, oak and hints of vanilla. Taste is medium to very sweet, light to medium bitter, light acidic and faint to light salty. Body is a bit watery with sparkling carbonation. Finish is long and mostly sweet with notes of caramel, roasted malt, dried dark fruits, oak, coffee, chocolate and hints of chalk and iron. A bit too watery and way too much carbonation for my taste.

Bottle. Deep brown with a beige head that's soon less than a coat. Aroma of strong bread, dried and stewed fruit, hints of spices. Deeper flavours upon a taste - rich and sweet with bread, chocolate, fruit, spices and enough bitterness to keep things in check. A little warmth too.
