| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 7, 2010 Took a lot longer to find this then my friend Walt and I both hoped for, but the pay-off was well worth it. The aroma is dark fruit, prunes, raisins, and figs. The appearance is wonderful with a beautiful purplish deep raisinlike brownish color with a complimentary off color tannish head. The beer left a darker spot from it’s sedimentation. The taste is again full of everything from figs, black currant, plum, raisin, candy, and alcohol. The finish is long with a full body, a sticky texture, a fizzy carbonation, that is not too much. The long finish is amazing. Thank you Rochefort and Walt.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 7, 2010 From the bottle, pours a very dark red with a thin off-white head. Berries and alcohol in the aroma, similar taste. Lightly sour finish, but exceptionally smooth throughout. Just look at the ranking, go try one. BVery (720), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 7, 2010 Bottle. Hazy cola brown pour. Thin white head. Aroma was sweet grapes. Taste is fig, earth, wood, and alcohol. Awesome. Croff (88), Trelleborg, Sweden
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 6, 2010 Pours a opaque dark brown. Small beige head that fades to lace quickly. Aroma of fruitcake soy sauce alcohol wood. Fruity dark rye bread flavor. Smooth, almost creamy with a alcohol kick. Clean finish, very little aftertaste, but a oily feeling on the lips. Overall a excellent brew. but if the ABV was turned down a bit it would be even better. McWorta (40), Luxembourg
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Feb 5, 2010 this one hits you. With aromas of dark/brown bread, a bit roasty, paired with resin, and hints of barnyard. I sensed it to be earthy, showing traces of alcohol, raisin and plumb.
The appearance is a hazy brown with tan foam. The taste is showing a medium-heavy sweetness, punching with a full body! A rather likable oily/slick texture feel with soft lively carbonation and a solid long finish. wortmonger (1), Alabama, USA does not count | 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 9/20 | Feb 5, 2010 sold at wallingford wine on rt 5 for just under 6 $ a bottle. worth every penny. mross (3), Vienna, Austria does not count | 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Feb 5, 2010 Pours dark brown and hazy with a very nice beige head. It has a very complex aroma consisting of dried fruits and berries. Flavors of sweet roasted malt, syrup, raisins, dates and blackcurrants. Very complex right through-out. Alcohol is quite noticeable but I have to say it to be well balanced. So much going on here, but truly amazing.
