◐ Taste

The palate delivers hoppy and woody flavours with a smooth, full body that belies the alcohol strength. Bitterness builds gradually across the mid-palate with woody and smoky impressions, while underlying bready and slightly spicy malt notes provide structure and balance.

Serve at 9–12°C

Serve at 10–13°C in a goblet. The yeast character and carbonation are the stars — cold would suppress both.

Goblet

The wide mouth and heavy base promote head formation and channel rich aromatics toward the nose. Traditional for Belgian strong ales.

Drink within 2 years. Some complexity develops with age but the yeast character is best relatively fresh.
