Impression

◎ Aussehen

Deep amber to mahogany hue, translucent with good clarity. A dense, off-white head forms readily and clings to the glass with fine Schaumkleiden as the beer is consumed. Brisk carbonation is visible throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with rich caramel and toffee notes derived from dark crystal and dark wheat Malz. Secondary aromas of dried plum and raisin emerge, layered with subtle alcohol warmth. A restrained hop presence adds gentle herbal undertones without dominating.

◐ Geschmack

Full-bodied entry with pronounced sweet malt character and caramel depth. The mid-palate develops dark fruit complexity — plum and fig notes — balanced by a dry, crisp finish that cuts through the alcohol warmth. Malty backbone remains present throughout, though restrained bitterness keeps this from becoming cloying.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and effervescent, with lingering caramel and a subtle alcohol heat that gradually fades. Aftertaste carries notes of dried fruit and Malz without sweetness.

Bei 12–14°C servieren. Ein kontemplatives Bier — Wärme erschließt dunkle Frucht, Karamell und komplexes Malz.

Das breite Mundstück und der schwere Fuß fördern die Schaumbildung und leiten reiche Aromatik zur Nase. Traditionell für belgische Starkbiere.
