33cl Bottle, complete with sediment: brewed 09/2011, best before 12/2012. Poured into a Westvleteren chalice @ home on 15 Oct 2012. This beer is also sold under the name of '400 jaar Scherpenheuvel'.

The sediment was allowed out during my pour so the beer looked a dull, cloudy orange: the head was white, the foam and bubbles being a variety of sizes and shapes.

Floral/fruity nose, with traces of malts and yeast.

I found the taste to be semi-sour and with a moldy feel overall. Strange but not really interesting, I prefer my Belgian brews to be more powerful and stronger in alcohol. Flavour wise it lacked depth, some maltiness, yeastiness and an off fruity undertone didn't really do it for me. Nothing wrong with it, but I couldn't recommend it to anyone.
