Nasmaak is heerlie

🇧🇪 Une ambrée simple et efficace, c’est bien fais

Thursday goes too slow, I've got Friday on my mind. So, to ease my agony, I have a beer. Clear, dark maroon brown is the appearance. Posh carbonation and a subsequent lush head that shoots even four fingers high. The fawn foamy stack melts fast to a messy lacing on the top. The nose receives cookie, dark caramel, chocolate malt, toasted brown sugar, a bit of syrup and distant nutmeg. Relatively intensive, well balanced and pleasant. The taste profile follows suit: ample dark caramel, raw cacao bean, toasted brown sugar, a pinch of cookie, faint cola nut and a good load more syrup than in the air. Maybe still a suggestion of nutmeg. The hoppy segment couldn't be analyzed from the fragrance, but now, the flavor cocktail suggests a fairly generous dry-grassy slam that gives character to the drink. The body is full. Nice! The tail lifts the hoppy side even higher but otherwise the concoction is more or less unchanged. The mouthfeel is full, intense, deep, lip-glueing but also moderately drying and beautifully balanced. Belgiany, for sure. A classic that I finally manage to check in here.

Hiukan vaatimaton belgiale. Makeutta on omaan makuun liikaa suhteessa muuhun. Tuoksu on tyypillinen, hiukan makea, mausteinen ja alkoholinen. Maku on hyvin makea, hunajainen. Pientä kirpeyttä on taustalla. Hiilihappoa on tyylille tyypillisesti runsaasti. Jälkimaku on alkuun kirpeä ja kuiva, mutta makeutuu loppua kohden. Jälkimaku jää myös kovin lyhyeksi. Olen juonut monia parempia versioita tästä tyylistä.

C’est un peu la base des bières ambrées. Bien faite, sans vice ni vertue. Se boit en litre
