thedm (3405), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Apr 14, 2003 Updated: Jun 4, 2003 This brew poured a light brown head of fine and medium sized bubbles that left a good lacing. It has a cloudy dark brown body and a strong raspberry aroma. It also has a strong raspberry taste and an acidic finish. Overall, this brew is just averagely impressive. I was more impressed by the unique packaging. I think it has been the only brew I have drank that was wrapped in a paper package and had a wire tied cork on the bottle.
Wim (734), Turnhout, Belgium Aug 17, 2008 cloudy amber coloured body with a off white head a sweet fruity malty aroma a sweet fruity malty taste with a malty bitter finish Borresteijn (431), Amstelveen, Netherlands Aug 14, 2008 Bottle. Dark amber brown colour, beige head. Aroma of yeast, malts. Flavour is malty sweet, yeast, fruity. High carbonation. A bit dull. TheBeerBaron (161), Florida, USA Aug 10, 2008 Cloudy red amber color medium light brown head with not much bubbles seen in the glass. Sweet malt aroma at first but gives way to a wierd mold kind of smell. A definite rock sugar aroma noticed as well. Sweet initial taste transitions to a cherry tartness. Palate is light, not as bubbly as other strong belgiums. A well blended dubbel that handles its alcohol very well. pojo41 (296), Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA Aug 1, 2008 Poured a dark hazy brown with the typical dubbel head and lacing. Good aroma and flavors of malt, caramel, spice and a bit of fruit. Medium body makes it pretty drinkable. Pretty decent. 944play (15), Austin, Texas, USA Jul 28, 2008 750 into bordeaux glass. Just a little yeast. Anise and peach stand out against a breadier background nose. Palate carries a weird bicarbonate tingle. Good but certainly not great.
