Dec 20, 2008 hazy amber pour with tan head. aroma of floral notes, dark fruit, and sweet malt. tastes of more caramel malt and dark fruit. there are many particulates in suspension which is apparent on the palate. very nice balanced finish.

Nov 30, 2008 Batch 2. Deep mahogany and clear, with white lacing. Red plum and raisin with a musty, dusty yeasting on the nose... a slight orange peel type citrus. Sour raisin and chocolate on the palate -- an odd mix that’s both biting and sweet. I’m not sure these two beers get along in a blend as well as I thought they would. Any differences on the front of the palate are resolved in time for a slightly creamy, herbal finish that makes the most of the sweet light caramel in the profile.

Nov 29, 2008 Deep golden amber color with a nice tightly packed white head that lasted and laced. Sweet malt and fruit in the aroma and flavor. A touch of spice, yeast and alcohol present as well. Slightly sour on the finish. Smooth on the palate. Enjoyable.

Nov 21, 2008 Good but nothing out of this world; although was too keen on Avery’s salvation. Aroma had a nice bread like quality mixed with a sweet malt note, closer to sugar cane. Flavor was similar with some fruit like notes in the finish. btw it was batch 2.

Nov 1, 2008 A very smooth and drinkable ale. The aroma is fruity with plums and dates dominationg. The flavour is quite subdued with the plums, sweet malt and esters dominationg and some wine like notes on top. Ends quite balanced.
It really doesn’t make much noise, but it’s a nice and rounded beer.

Oct 26, 2008 A good beer (Batch 2) but there are better offerings out there. I don’t say that as a dig on this beer, but more out of respect to how many amazing Belgians there are out there.
Nice amber/brown color on pour, minimal white head. Sweetness on the nose, all malt, with some fruit and spice. Taste is same as the nose - sweet with a slight hint of spice.

Oct 22, 2008 16.9 oz bottle, bought at West Lakeview Liquors in Chicago. Pours an amber/orange color, slightly murky, with minimal fizzy off-white head. Aroma of sweet malt, slight hops, spice, and alcohol. Taste is sweet malt and fruit, with slight sour bite, with alcohol finish. Smooth and slightly fizzy mouthfeel. Pretty decent Belgian Strong.
