30/XI/18 - on tap @ Billie's Beer Festival Day 1 (Antwerp), BB: n/a - (2018-1817) Thanks to the RateBeer crew for sharing today's beers!
Clear dark brown beer, creamy beige head, stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: lots of alcohol, sweetish, hazelnut, nice roast, coffee, lots of burned caramel, some vanilla. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: sweet, caramel, notes, malty, soft roast, lots of chocolate, good! Aftertaste: alcohol, whisky, more alcohol, more caramel, roasted, melons.

Tan head, gone in seconds, pouring viscously to black motor oil. (Served a tad too warm). Punch of Bourbon, but also burnt rubber, really like something chemically made. Nose can FEEL the heat. Bourbon, vanilla, sweet. Mild burn, touch of stout acidity. Finish is quite raw alcohol. Furious alcoholheat. Very viscous, opulent feel. Aftertaste gives a new wry bitterness - the walnut? Punch-in-the-face (and the wallet). Aphroditè? No - she was more subtle as a godess. 8/4/7/4/14
