Gulden Draak (Dark Triple)
White painted brown glass 330ml.bottle pours a dark, slightly cloudy mahogany brown ale. The head 1inch thick and foamy off-white with some nice lacing as well. Smells sweet and malty with plum and fig fruityness then alcohol comes through with some authority. Nice aroma. Sweet malt fills the mouth with a fruity bouquet as the alcohol amplifies the flavor. The hops come into play and pan the sweetness to a well balanced finish. Very tasty and not too sweet. Big in flavor, big in body with a smooth, yet tingly mouthfeel, high ABV is very warming and ever so present. Easy to drink but take it easy and savor it a bit. I recommend this to lovers of strong ale...Cheers!
