clueo (88), Pennsylvania, USA Nov 23, 2007 I had this beer on tap at the Beth Brew Works. The color is dark and heavy in appearance, but not quite as heavy taste wise. A slighly sweet finish. A good Belhian Dark.

Appears a dark brown with ruby red edges when held to the light. Light tan head fades into a hearty collar. Streaky lacing is left behind.
Smell is of oatmeal, cocoa powder, banana, caramel, and light diacetyl highlighted with buttercream.
Taste mimics the aromas with grainy, nutty, raisin flavors that seem to pull through.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied, creamy, and smooth. Well balanced. NicerInPerson (334), North of Raleigh, North Carolina, USA Nov 4, 2007 The aroma was caramel with some diacetyl and molasses and a light bit of chocolate with a vinous nature. The beer arrive brownish black with very little head and just wisps of it existed at the edge of the liquid surface. The flavor was chocoaltd and diacetyl and a strong acrid acidiy and winey character dominated. Chocolate was the most notable flavor and the finish was dry, make that bone dry with a lasting diacetyl and chocolate. The body was medium and the beer had a low carbonation level. Some alcohol warming was present. Not a very good beer at all. Skip it.Pint at BBW. Beerded_one (1551), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 27, 2007 Draft sampled at brewery.
