Great beer from tytonderso. Thanks! 750mL. Huge Belgian yeast aroma with lots of banana a little clove, a little malt, and some ethanol. Lots of carbonation as the cork is popped off the wirecge bottle. Dark amber color as it fills half my Lost Abbey glass. High carbonation in the liquid, but a small head of small bubbles. Taste leans sweet, a hint of alcohol burn and strong aroma as it rises in the back of my nasal packages. Reminds me a lot of a cross between Chimay Red and Blue, but a little more refined. I think it would do well with another 1year of aging,.

Dec 1, 2008 Lighter amber/orange pour with a tall white head. Much lighter then I was expecting. Lots of fruit sweetness. Citrus, apricots, dry sweetness of fig. Dry finish with a nice carbonation to it that brought out a bit of spiciness.

Dec 1, 2008 The pour was dark brown with auburn highlights. A compact off-white head produced some nice lacing. The aroma was malt, raisin, figs and some unchecked alcohol. The flavor was slightly smoky, malt, raisin and alcohol. The mouthfeel was average, carbonation was almost too tight.

Nov 29, 2008 Bottle: Pour is deep hazy amber with a creamy light tan head. Aroma is deep sweet malt with yeast and light caramel. Flavor is smooth with light caramel, raisins, brown sugar, light alcohol, and a hint of hops towards the end. Fairly well blended brew. Pretty fruity and smooth. Alcohol is well hidden.
