Aromas of dried fruit, bread, and spices. Nice flavors of similar origin with an extra touch of yeast, and a slight sweet finish. Enjoyable belgian.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 28, 2009 Bomber. Pours dark orange with a healthy head. Aroma of yeast, malt, and clove. Flavor has classic Allagash softness, yet it is simultaneously spicy throughout. I tasted soda cracker and dried fruit initially, complemented by mid-palate earthiness. Palate is characteristically “soft”, yet the finish is very dry. Overall a well-balanced Allagash offering, though perhaps not their best. HonkeyBra (1320), Lemont, Illinois, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 17, 2009 Cork almost took my face off. I took off the cork and it shot inches from my face, hit the ceiling, spraying beer allover my lap and macbook. Kind of an orangish amber pour with thick white head. Sweet, malty aroma. Flavor is pears, banana and spice, with a bit of bitterness in the back of the throat. Almost an herbal bitter finish. The sweetness is subdued, which I appreciate. Nice, well carbonated, typically belgian mouthfeel. Overall, good. nathan30533 (139), Dahlonega, Georgia, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Mar 7, 2009 What a warming brew. Smell the sweet malts. Taste the balance of spice. Good look and feel upon drinking. Great brew. EnSiFeRuM (501), Quebec, Canada
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Feb 21, 2009 Bouteille de 330 ml. Nos yeux observent une bière de couleur ambrée-orangée qui possède un col de mousse modeste. Au nez on respire des arômes de raisins, de fleur, de lilas, de citron, de pain, de pruneaux et de cassis. En bouche le corps est moyen avec une effervescence moyenne. On goûte des saveurs de cassis, de raisins, d’épices, de pain, de fleurs et de grain torréfiés. La finale présente une légère pointe d’alcool et d’amertume. Excellent
