Beers similar to Rough Snuff II

Belgian Strong Dark·Denmark·9.5% ABV·One of 29 Belgian Strong Darks in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Rough Snuff II's spicy and full-bodied character. A dark, strong Belgian beer brewed on seven different malts and spiced. Candy sugar, bladderwrack and Belgian yeast give it fullness and strength. The original Rough Snuff of 2010 was banned: it contained snus, and the Danish food authority pointed to an old EU rule against mixing food with non-food. Rough Snuff II is the version without snus.
