Bottle from a trade with Werckmeister, many thanks. Pale golden color with big white head. Aroma is malty, sweet and tart fruits. Taste is big candied sugar and honey booze, slightly tart, typical Belgian Strong character. Carbonation is lower than expected, good. Maybe a little bit too boozy.

Draught at Tribaun, Innsbruck
Red Amber color, hazy, with compact head. The aroma is strong, resiny, spicy, with hints of frankincense, and hops. The mouthfeel is too dry, it hinders the malt flavor; strong g bitterness, quite resiny hops.
Starts great, misses a bit, later. But it’s still a good hoppy Pale Ale.

Cloudy blond color. The aroma is a bit earthy, grassy. It fails a bit with the malt flavor, missing; strong bitterness, a bit herbaceous in the final, but almost vegetable, not the best result from hops.
Not impressive.

330 ml bottle from Grand Whisky, Vienna.
Black body, with a big, fluffy, lacing, dark beige head.
Aroma of coffee, dark chocolate, toast, liquorice, caramel, some dark fruits.
Taste follows this pretty much.
Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes quite soft, roasty, dry, a bit alcohol warming, with toast, coffee, liquorice, suntle caramel.
Nice one. Quite light bodied, but with nice, dry roasty notes and a good balance. Not among my favourite Stouts from Austria, but really solid and drinkable.
