Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Ronchin, France

Serve in Trappist glass, Tulip, Tumbler

Bottled from Peculiar Pub. I was surprised when I first tasted this beer. I was expecting an overmalted gimmick. What I got instead was a tasty beer with strong elements of orange peel and caramel. Pours a strong cloudy orange in color. Not bad at all. I need to find a few of these for home consumption.

(07.13.06) 8 oz brown bottle from Liquorama. 13% ABV. Best before 28.03.07. Fruity nose. Poured clear amber with small white head. No discernable carbonation. Medium bodied ale that starts with moderate malt sweetness and fruity (plum?) and caramel flavors. Finished the same but with light bitterness. Some metallic aftertaste. Definite alcoholic presence. Smooth. A very good high-alcoholic beer.

(Bottle) Golden with some white head. Hoppy and spicy aroma. Full bodied with medium carbonation. Flavour is spicy, sweet, rich and complex. Overall a very nice, full-on beer.

(FRANCE) This Belgian style brew is courtesy of fellow knight The_Captain, thx. Hazy orange / amber color with a med-white head. The aroma is of fruits and spices with a slight tart / alcohol feel.,But the 13% is well hidden !!! Great label, and the best beer from france for me so far. Will drink again !!

Bottle - 3 pack. Shared this with beergestapo in the Devonshire. Poured a slight hazy amber gold with a white head. Some aroma of white grapes similar to a wine. Pallet was smooth with a bit of sweetness, malts and very much a Belgian in character. Although 13% it was relatively mild and drinkable. Liked this, not just a clever label but a good Strong Ale as well.

25 cl. bottle @ Kulminator: possibly aged but definitely the 13% version – bottle claims hilariously that this is the strongest beer in the world – A: clear golden with a small white head – sweet with syrup and honey as well as grains, Belgian yeast, fruits (incl. melon), slightly malty & flowers with booze in the aftertaste (rather slightly & not as booze ridden as others have said theirs were)– slightly grainy medium body and carbonation – the reviews on here as well as the score are harsh hut honestly I rather liked this one

Am Hals der Flasche prangt ein Etikett mit dem Aufdruck 13% Vol. alc. . Etwas suspekt, wenn ein Bier mit seinem Alkoholgehalt beworben wird. Aber, nun ja. Malzig-honigartige Geruchsaromen. Am Gaumen malzig und süß. Deutliches Feigen-Rosinenaroma, was bei derart hochprozentigen Bieren öfters vorkommt. Der Alkohol wurde gut versteckt - das Bier brennt wenig in Mund und Rachen. Überraschend gut süffig. Belzebuth aus Frankreich bildet den vorläufigen Abschluß der Teufel-Tests und setzt einen gelungenen Schlußpunkt.Test vom 22.4.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche

Interessant bier, niet te vergelijken met iets dat ik eerder heb geproefd. En je voelt de alcohol, hij slaat gelijk in en dat is lekker. Eén per keer is voldoende en niet te vaak, maar dit bier is een ervaring om te drinken.
