33cl into a tulip. Pours a dirty dishwater cola, minor dense two finger head receded fairly quick, ok lacing.

Aroma is of both light & dark skinned fruits with a pleasant phenolic up note, clean.

Taste is mild, no sharp notes, rounded, no hint of alcohol. Traditional but mild strong dark flavors. Low in sweetness, ends with a nice dry phenolic kick to jump start the aftertaste. Thin bodied mouthfeel.

Peculiar but pleasant aftertaste that fades away with notes of root beer Kool Aid.
cheers

No freshnessdate. Used to be brewed at Vervifontaine but now by this brewery Grain d' Orge. Nice nose having lots of different malts mostly of caramellic caracter, litle sour cherrie, and lots of fruityness noticing the listed pearsyrup but also a honeylike hint. Taste is based on caramellic malt and litle sour pearsyrup noticable. Further very fresh and only light bittered and a overal fresh sourbitter aftertaste.
Good mouthfeel with not too high carbonisation and a full feeling from the caramalts. Enjoyable and well drinkable IMO.
