Le brun cuivré éclatant de sa robe est le préambule d’un univers de douceur et de rondeur. Le nez malté, légèrement fruité, concorde parfaitement avec un goût orienté vers des saveurs « caramel ». Soutenue à tous niveaux, elle reste très équilibrée. Une très légère note de torréfaction nous surprend toutefois en fin de bouche. Première bière produite par la brasserie, sa rondeur rappelle le plaisir et nous invite à passer un moment simple de dégustation.

Amber color, foamy head. Malty aroma with berries. I can smell the sourness of an infected beer. Also the same type of sourness in the flavor, not too annoying, by the way. malt and red berries. Some biscuit. Just a bit of bitterness in the aftertaste. Not too bad.

15th May 2017: 330ml bottle in De Bierboom, Brugge. Amber pour, off-white head. Easy drinking malty beer, fruity with a caramel like aroma. Semi-sweet malty flavours with again caramel to the fore: my sweet tooth liking this beer a lot.
