Rich malty aroma, some spice. Similar taste - rich malts, spicy bitterness. Need to retaste.

Bottle. Slightly unclear golden body with a white head. Quite typical Saison aroma with fruity esters and yeast. Taste is mild and refreshing fruity with style typical peppery yeast and esters. Medium body and aftertaste in the same direction. A well-made, easy drinkable, quite refreshing, straight forward Sasion. Highly enjoyable without being mind blowing.

Very good creamy, irregular head over red-shot black beer. Roast, ashes, bark, dark green leaves, moss, dry, brown candi sugar aromas. Sweetish-ashy, liquorice; faint, but nice acidity and a hint @ black chocolate. Finish accentuates the sweetness. Pretty well-carbonated, almost fizzy. Not really big-bodied. Aftertaste gets more black chocolate, and warming up, caramel/toffee. Just a bit... easy. Nothing really jumps out to say "wow".
