Bottle at ABC. Dark brown with almost no beige head. Aroma of dark malt, molasses, caramel, dried fruits, vanilla, raisins. Taste si very similar. Warming alcohol in finish. Nice.
Bottle shared. Black with small tan head. Massive coconut, bourbon, asphalt, blackberries, dark chocolate, red wine, earthy, boozy, old wet wood. Quite sweet,medium bitter and light sour. Almost full bodied, slightly dry. A bit rough, but lovely aromas.

Les Sablons/Normandie. Bottle from home, closing night here. Black, not lasting head. Massive sweet deep roasted choco malt, bourbon, marzipan, roast, muscovado sugar, peppers. Big sweet and bitter, background spiciness. Full body & soft carb.
Dark pour with a thin tan head. Huge tonka notes up front, coconut, vanilla, toffee, chocolate, sour cherries, booze. Damn, this stuff's almost excellent! Aside from some sharp, boozy notes, this beer is freaking delicious. Go Bronckhorster!
