L- Black, even held right to a halogen bulb not a photon gets through. That's something I usually expect in high ABV% black beers, not down at a lowly 4.5%. Pours with 1Cm dark [notably] tan head, that's holding well even 15mins later.
S- Notably toasty and with a smokey facet.
T- Deeply toasty and with a hint of smoke. It leaves a sense of fireplace/char on my lips, it's surprising how pungent the taste is for a 4.5% beer.
F- The flavour is big, pungent, really pretty intense. This really has to be a slow-sipping beer it's too full-on to rush. The surprising thing is that despite being only 4.5% it doesn't come out as hugely unbalanced.
O- ... that said I'd be interested to try this beer just with an amped up ABV%, to say 7-8%, maybe the Taste/Feel would balance better?
Bought from BelgianInABox Antwerp/BE for home delivery to me in London/UK. 330ml bottle Euro2.99. BB: 03/2023.
