0.33 l bottle from 'De Hoppenaar', bottled in August 2024. Hazy, dark ruby with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, beige head. Sweetish-malty, a bit fruity-resiny aroma of caramel, tobacco, nuts and some pine. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, gently resiny and a little fruity taste of caramel, nuts, tobacco, pine, some marzipan and hints of dark fruits, followed by a short, gently bitter finish. Medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Solid beer, maybe a little too old already. Not overly American, leaning towards Brown Ale.
