Can from Albert Heijn (presumably). Hazy brown, big, frothy, tan head. Aroma of fig, red apple, raisin, toffee, dried orange peel, brown sugar, brandy, wet wood. Taste has sweet fig, raisin & date in a toffee-like, brown-sugary malt body surrounded by herbal tea notes. Herbal & resinous hoppy finish, quite bitter and hinting at pink grapefruit peel, whilst the dried fruit sweetness persists along with warming brandy-like alcohol. Full body, syrupy texture, soft carbonation. Delicious sweet profile, but sufficient bitterness pushes it into American BW territory. Nice!

Can from somewhere. Cloudy black, huge, frothy, dark beige head. Aroma of milk chocolate, chocolate sauce, vanilla pudding, cappuccino, brownie, rye bread, coco cream, flavoured jenever. Taste has very sweet milk chocolate, brownie & dark fudge with a hint of maple syrup; slightly toasty & oaty too; vague herbal accent. Peppery hoppy finish, ongoing chocolate, coco cream & vanilla and a soft coffee bitterness. Full body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Not overly sweet and well structured.
