mcberko (2463) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - FEB 24, 2012
Sampled from bottle at Brewery Creek, pours a clear amber with a small white head. Simple aroma of syrup and caramel malts - hints at being cloyingly sweet. Flavour is sickly sweet with caramel malts, syrup and slight Belgian yeast notes. Simple, cloyingly sweet and unrefined. Not good.

My bottle [11.2oz] shared with garthicus & HogTownHarry. Dec. 13, 2011. Pours a slightly hazy orange-amber with a small fluffy white head. Mild aroma is grainy and sweet along with sweet malt and a hint of alcohol. Flavour of grain, sweet malt, alcohol, fruit, sugar and honey. Average bodied. Just alright.

BBB63 (5022) - La Porte, Indiana, USA - FEB 3, 2012
Flip top bottle and served in my NB Worthy glass: Slightly hazy russet amber with a small but lasting head which left only spotty lace upon the glass. The aroma has notes of crystal and toasted malts, plenty of pils malt, butterscotch, candied apple and fruit cake, with some olde school barley wine oxidation which is a good thing. The taste is shockingly smooth and approachable, with sweet fruits and sweet malts the main focus here. This is called a Belgian Strong but I see much more in common with an English Strong Ale IMO. Lush complex layers of malt with a palate grabbing alcohol content. The bitterness comes about for a brief moment to help move the train along, nice herbal components. The mouth feel is lush yet not sticky, warming but not in your face. In a world of over priced Italian brews this one actually seemed worth the price. I would buy this again which is high praise for an Italian beer.
