Interesting foamy dark beer. Slightly bitter, very complex taste, including hints of salt licorice (salmiakki for the initiated). A very pleasant aroma of pine woods was also found.

Belgian Beer Review: Mort Subite Gueuze
Very sweete gueuze beer. Bitter end but rather unremarkable. As gueuzes go, my least favourite of them all.
Belgian Beer Review: Ciney Brune/Bruin
Nice aroma. Great, slightly sweet taste. Not very bitter, a very comfortable beer if one is not at ease with darker brews.
Belgian Beer Review: St. Feuillien Brune
Surprisingly fruity abbe beer. Strong colour and cereals present in aftertaste.
Belgian Beer Review: Trappistes Rochefort
A beer with an interesting colour, dark but not transparent, and very clean aroma. High alcoholic content, but an excellent soft taste with hints of Gouda cheese, full grain bread and chocolate.
Belgian Beer Review: Hoegaarden Grand Cru
A beer with a nice golden colour, and somewhat complex taste: slightly bitter, with overtones of tropical fruits and cherries. Its taste somehow compelled me to drink it with a slice of good bread.
Belgian Beer Review: Kasteel Bruin/Brune
Deceptively fruity brown beer. Nice colour, great aroma, very comfortable taste, but quite a punch at 11% alcoholic volume. A very unexpected new favourite, after Chimay brune.
Belgian Beer Review: Leffe Radieuse
This is the last of the Leffe abbey beers available at my local supermarket. A dark, creamy, bitter ale with a fruity aroma and one of my personal favourites. If you don’t like strong tastes, avoid it.
Belgian Beer Review: Lindemans Pecheresse
A fruity lambic beer with peach under and overtones. Interesting colour. Very sweet and not for those who don’t like fruity beers. This one is a favourite of some girls I know.
Belgian Beer Review: Westmalle Tripel
This Trappist beer has a strong honey colour and aroma. Its flavour is very strong, but initially deceptively light and with hints of nice caramel. At the end of the tasting provides a strong kick at 9%.
