jbruner (8524) - Lakewood, California, USA - DEC 16, 2018UPDATED: DEC 16, 2018 Pours a clear brown from the bottle with bubbly tan head that dissipates to leave moderate lace. Aroma of dark fruit and light spice Belgian esters with a touch of light vanilla tannnins. Taste follows, clean and easy, booze well hidden. Light on most accounts, but well done.

WillemsUrenkel (3872) - Oldenburg, GERMANY - MAR 29, 2018From kapppldav123. Thanks for sharing! Pours out black, nearly no head. Smooth choco with barrelwood and some fuity smell. Taste is more a soft version. Malty with barrel wood influences. Low alcoholic. Brown sugar elements. Maybe not the freshest bottle as kappldav123 said?
kappldav123 (8132) - Nordhausen, GERMANY - MAR 25, 2018Bottle looks good. Beer in the glass dark black, small head. Malty-stouty aroma. Starts intense malty, earthy, rusty. Modest dry. But also some washy-watery notes. Finish flat. Probably a bit past its prime. Still okay.
