Another local Brussels brew in addition to the tranche of rarities I managed to smuggle back post EU economic forecast. I'll keep this one brief.
This lively little brew pours with a truly rich, deep, dark mahogany body - little penetration so in low light appears black, a black IPA nonetheless.
On the nose this inverted commas IPA is full of molasses and a touch of wet leather, alongside some traditional Belgian yeast character and a some citric hop notes.
Taste is a combination of a thick spattering of bittering hops, chalky texture and some lingering roasted malt alongside acetone and estery sugars.
The end leaves a bitterness akin to something typically modern and English in the IPA vain - twitchy and sticky lingering hop notes along with toast, roasted malts and a dry, slightly tannic character.
Worth a peak - Flavoursome porter meets hops in a slightly confuddled but nonetheless tasty mess.
