draft @ Delirium, Brussels. Brune foncée allant presque vers le noir, col épais laissant une touche doré sur le verre. Arôme est assez faiblard, malt caramel, levure belge rappelant une double abbaye avec une pointe douce allant vers le beurre. En bouche, bière douce, sucre candi, levure belge, malt caramel avec pas mal de fruits noirs; raisins et pruneaux. Aspect cara pils, douce et ce profile de beurre de pop-corn, les fruits noirs donnent une pointe d’aigreur qui se mélange à un houblon citronné à l’amertume discrète. Pas vraimetn de trace d’épices.

Bottle. It’s clear, dark amber to brown in color and with a dense, off-white to light beige head of moderate size. Some lacings. Lots of dried fruits, some cellar and brown sugar. A little hoppy touch too. Pleasant bitterness towards the end, with dried fruits, some caramel, and a sugary touch. Dryish and nicely carbonated. full to medium bodied. Overall, a quite nice one, one that I could drink more of. 111030
