can, vintage 2024 batch 3209 bought at kihoskh
pitch dark, brown head that goes more toward dark brown at the lower levels. looks seriously good.
complex and rounded roasted malty aroma where nuances are balanced but all turned up 110%. aroma is mostly roasted malts, finer nuances of hints of coffee and nuts. as it warms up i get a faint note that i can't place - glue or booze or something. it's okay, it's very faint, hardly noticeable.
flavor is roasted malts, hard roasted malts in the ending. subtle notes of bitter caramel, there is some malty sweetness and some brown sugar, but most of the flavor is serioulsly strong roasted malts. If i had to guess, i would guess it's a mix of several brews, some sweeter than others - but it probably is not.
palate is super smooth and fits the beer very well
This is a very brutal imperial stout, yet it is also very balanced and well rounded. great brew.

mild malty, nutty malty, old hoppy, white dough, flowers, wet rye dough aroma.
flavor is nutty malty, slighlty herbal and slightly flowery hoppy note - sort of like an english strong bitter, the malts are balanced well by the hops and the beer feels complete, not watery or unbalanced. also reminds me of a brown ale or a classic, it has some of the good stuff from these styles. hard to place, but quite likable.

piney and grapefruity hoppy aroma with some herbal stinging nettle / boiled cabbage like notes too. the herbal bitterness is a distraction for me.
flavor is herbal biltter, sugar-fried-cabbage (which can get slightly cloying-sulhurish) also some good seriously bitter hoppy notes, the malts are in the background and perhaps a bit nutty. all in all i don't like this one..far too herbal. my gf did not want her share, one of her comments were rotten tomatoes and we were not talking about movies.

can from føtex
pours amber orange with a huge amber orange smooth head.
bready sweet nutte malty aroma, some harsh (sun-beer-like) bitterness, so not super rounded, but otherwise quite nice malty aroma.
flavor is very nicely malty with fainter sweet nutty notes and fainter roasted malty notes. the bitterness i disliked in the aroma is much fainter, it is still there though.

75cl bottle from føtex. as Grimbergen Triple D'Abbaye from kronenburg
clear golden, white head.
yesty flowery coriander aroma lying somewhere betweeen a sweeter blonde and a more citrussy triple. almost like they mixed the two styles. distinctly belgian style feel to it, more than most other grimbergen.
flavor is belgian yeasts, flowers, alc bitterness and a malty and fruity sweetness that seems a bit too high, compared to "real" belgian triple's. Tastes a bit industrial and one dimensional but i'd much rather this one than a random industrial beer. If you expect abbey quality tripel, you'll be somewhat dissapointed. For a Grimbergen it's really good.

Hazy yellow, huge light yellow head. pine and grapefruit in the aroma, but also sweet cardboardy ish notes you normally find in a hazy ipa. quite strong aroma . the pine and grapefruit is fruity and high-quality ish.
flavor is quite pine and grapefruity bitter, and not like a neipa, there is also a - i could call it - hop pellet tasteless bitterness that adds to the bitterness but is not very aromatic. in total the beer is quite bitter and reminds me of the less balanced ones of the popular major us label very bitter ipa's.
anarkist beers are often somewhat tempered and mainstream-y, but this one is not. it's quite intense.
