Bottled. Reddish amber colour, small beige head. Aroma is just lovely, richly fruity and pleasant hopping and yeasting. Flavour is sweet toffeeish with some bitterish flowery hops and spices. Pleasant aftertaste of plum, spices and flowery stuff. Extremely complex, and yes, it’s a christmassy beer indeed!!

Cloudy orangish brown body with a moderate head. Aroma is their yeast with some darker fruits and caramel. Flavor is the same, but a little bit much alcohol to my liking. It’s there, but definitely doesn’t ruin it either.

Bottle (1 years). clear brown muddy ale with nice tan head. malt, caramel, alcohol and spicy aroma. Taste of malt caramel, spicy finish, well balanced, no carbonation. very nice. thanks to Gonzobeer. Bière de couleur brun assez clair avec des sédiments et un bon collet beige. Odeur de malt, caramel, alcool et épices. Au goût, c’est le malt caramel, avec des épices a la fin, bien équilibré, co2 très bas. merci gonz

Pours a slightly hazy cobber with a tanned head. Smells surprizingly hoppy (for a Belgian stron ale). Sweet with aromas of yeast, and malts, with hints of slightly roasted malts and spices. Creamy body. Bitter hoppy finish.

Darker amber ale with floaties, and thick froathy off-white head. In aroma, cinnamon, cloves and orange peels. Wonderful. In mouth, nice mix of the spices, ginger most noted, smooth and pleasant. Rich bodied with wonderful spice balance. Bought from Bieropholie. November 2005. Mike’s place.

bottle. pours an orange-brown colour with a small white head. very nice aroma of raisins, chocolate, and a somewhat sweet yeasty component. flavours of yeast and chocolate with alcohol peering throughout. very nice soft bready malt. another great one from Abbaye des Rocs.
