This has been sitting in the DBF for a while – how bad can it be? I guess we’re about to find out!
Pours a light amber color with some carbonation from the 500 mL bottle. Has a malty, sweet nose and a taste to match. Very sweet with some cloying. Belgian Dark? Not in my book.
Alcohol is there and it kicks in at the finish. Decent alcohol delivery vehicle for the winos and kids, but for me it’s a pretty nasty combo. Some metallic bitterness in the finish and a solvent/aftershave note at the back.
Ugggghhh…just about what I expected, 3/4 of the bottle is a drain pour.
