Some beers from last summer

Just had a couple of the beer I bought on holiday (vacation) last year, there are reasons that they have lasted this long. Some of the beers I bought are bottle conditioned and I keep disturbing the sediment. Some others are very strong and sine my episode last year, I have been weary of drinking them. There are other still to be drunk but they will not last long now.

First I tried, Lancelot, Bonnets Rouge from France, one of the bottle conditioned beers and I didn't manage to pour it clean though.

   

5.5% a hazy red colour with no head but what else can you expect pouring slowly, the aroma was fruity, as was the taste with fruity caramel malt in there, it was quite nice.

Next it was the strong one, Van Steenberge, Piraat from Belgium.

   

10.5% amber to red colour with a good head, sweet fruity ester aroma, taste is strong, bitter sweet and fruity, is is slightly over carbonated though but still very nice.
