Imperial stout from a new microbrewery in Arlon, in the southernmost part of Belgium. Yellowish pale beige, moussy, medium thick head on a very dark, hazy chocolate brown beer – not quite a black as “imperial stout” normally suggests, though. Aroma of roasted chicory, coffee grounds, wormwood, ‘fondant’ chocolate, hard caramel, tea, whisky, bitterroot. Sweet and fruity onset with some pear, date and fig notes, softish carb, fluffy and full mouthfeel, toasted nuts, some caramel and bitter chocolate, quickly turning very roasted bitter (black coffee), evolving into very strong, bitterrooty and wormwoody hop bitterness as well, strongly reinforcing the roasted bitterness. Strange case: in a world where strong stouts have become increasingly sweet in the past fifteen years or so, a trend culminating in the pastry stout concept, I am always glad to encounter one that still has this full bitterness originally which typified the genre. This one is certainly bitter enough, but even more from hops than from roasted malts or grains: in fact, it has a dark brown hue rather than black, and visually resembles a Belgian strong dark ale more than an Anglo-Saxon imperial stout. In that respect, I regret to say that this is not a very successful beer for me, in spite of its silver medal…

Süßer hopfiger Beginn. Gleichzeitig bitter, hefig-kräutrig, insgesamt nicht wirklich zusammenpassend. Alkoholisch würzig, süß-pappiger Abgang. Meh. 9/6/6/6/9/6

'Belgian style IPA' (I seem to be the top rater here of this somewhat odd and, frankly, limp category) from a new microbrewery in the Gaume region in Belgian Lorraine, the southernmost tip of the country. Intricately 'Brugse kant'-like lacing, medium thick, stable, fine-bubbled, egg-white head on an initially clear, deep orange-hued 'old gold' beer with an amberish tinge and visible, but quiet sparkling, shifting to a misty peachy-orange and eventually even somewhat 'muddy' look with sediment. Aroma of dried orange peel, mandarin and candied orange (quite strongly so - almost reminiscent of e.g. Troubadour Magma but less expressive), green banana, soggy peanuts, fresh lemonbalm in spring, vague hint of sourdough somewhere, old biscuit, dried rosemary, minerals, hints of roses, ripe peach, cooked red apple, glazed carrots, old potato mash, pear, honey, ginger, vague clove, sweaty touch (sweaty feet even - luckily tucked away deep in the background). Fruity, sweetish onset, mandarin and red apple mingled with pear and peach, lively carbonated but in an acceptably 'mild'-ish way, typically 'Belgian' let's say; smooth, full body. Rounded dry-biscuity and sweet-bready maltiness with a caramelly edge, even a very slight nuttiness, quickly and fairly strongly aromatized by very citrusy hoppiness, lots of orange peel, grapefruit pith and perhaps a faint dash of dried lemon zest powder, also bringing a spicy, grapefruity bitterness to the finish, where some 'Belgian' spicy phenols and fruity esters play along too. Ends quite (peppery) hop bitter, a tad astringent even, reminiscent of the IPA standard (also the 'Belgian' way) from before the haze craze came along; rooty, but spicy and colourful, with some vague alcohol appearing to accentuate both the fruity sweetness and hoppy bitterness - but then disappearing again, as it ought to be. Bready yeastiness, with all its fruity and spicy effects, certainly lingers, but so do the old-fashionedly citrusy hops, so this one indeed very much qualifies as a Belgian IPA if this must be a category of its own; heck, along with Troubadour Magma, De Plukker's All Inclusive series, Senne's Schieven IPA, Kerkom's Hopverdomme and others, I could even use this one as an example of the concept of 'Belgian IPA' as a style category - if I ever needed one. In all: delivers exactly what it promises in a correct, tasty, very enjoyable way. Much better than I anticipated, to be honest, I will probably watch this brewery a bit more attentively from now on, now that I know of its existence...
