The beer seemed a little bit overdone to me. I feel like it was a bit to malty and sweet for my tastes. I would have liked to be able to taste the hops a bit better. It was a solid beer that was full of flavor, but just not the flavor that I prefer.

Bottle provided by beastiefan2k. Pours hazy brown and amber with a small fizzy light brown head, somewhat diminishing, spare head. Aroma is heavy malt (caramel, toffee, nutty), heavy hops (flowers, perfume), average yeast (dough, fresh leather) with notes of heavy alcohol, apple, pear and port. Full bodied, sticky texture, avearage carbonation and a bitter finish. Average duration, moderate sweetness, heavy acidity and bitterness; moderate alcohol and heavy malt, caramel, maple flavor, perfume and floral hops, well balanced.

Poured a clear ruby brown color with a lasting thick head. Aroma is somewhat soft but contains caramel, clove and some banana. Flavor is more of what I expected with rich caramelized malts, fig, raisin, cane sugar, along with a hint of apricot, clove and cinamon. Mouthfeel is slightly sweet but dry enough to be considered belgian.

Light hazy deep amber colour with a small off white head. Malty, quite complex fruity sweetness with a light alcohol note. Sweet malty flavor with a warming alcohol sweet finish.

(Bottle 75 cl) Slightly hazy, dark amber with an off-white head. Complex, fruity and quite vinous aroma. Solid body with lots of fruit and sweetish caramel. Very complex, vinous, sherry-like flavours with a rather heavy alcoholic finish. 080107

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is very alcoholic combined with notes of over ripe fruits, and a bit of whiskey. The flavor is very sweet with strong notes of alcohol, which leaves a bite in the mouth, but also with notes of over ripe fruits and lighter notes of prunes and spices, leading to a slightly bitter end. To me it would be even better if it was a bit more spicy.

Bottle. Hazy amber colour with a white head. Fruity sweet alcoholic aroma with caramel and hops. The flavour is siruppy sweet, fruity, alcoholic, malty and bready. Sweet hoppy and malty aftertaste.

Bottled (thx. Storm for sharing): Amber coloured. Unclear. Dense off white head. Alcohol, fruits and light spice in the nose. Flavour of liqourice, alchol, sweetness, fruits and some herbal and grassy notes. A hoppy quad. Awesome. Quite complex and balanced. Medium to full bodied. Has a light bitter alcoholdense end with loads of warmth on lips and palate. This I really dig.
