Gushing bottle. Polished oak colour with tiny bubbles. Head comes and goes. Bags of flavour in a thin, chemical body. The chemical taste increases unpleasantly. Sacharine. Not good. Alcohol starts to come through. Bad.

Aug 24, 2008 Dark brown with a pale tan head. This was an excellent Belgian dark ale. Just the right mix of sweet, malt, and alcohol flavors. It was very foamy, and bubbled out of the bottle after opening. A great alternative to champagne.
