50 cL bottle, 3 L bottle and tap several times since the first release. Pours red/brown with light brown head. Aroma is strong, clear alcohol notes, berries, spice, roasted malt and liquorice. Taste has all the same elements in wineous blend, but notes just explode into a firework of taste - fantastic but perhaps slightly too strong and overwhelming.

Aug 27, 2008 Bottle thanks to Bu11zeye. Pours a mahogany color with a small creamy head. NOse is belgian candy sugar, honey, mulling spices, and some dark fruit such as dates. Taste is surprisingly weak after that nice nose. Sugar, spice, malt, a bit watery mouthfeel, and not a lot of back end bitterness or acid. Not bad but the nose was the real fun.

Aug 27, 2008 2006 bottle thanks to bu11zeye.. Thought this was a brown or even a mild because of the malt heavy and low, non alpha hop profile. Pours with a light brown head, covering a dark brown body. Aroma of dark furits, caramel and pitted fruits. Taste is a bit sour and metallic at first, but towards the end there ar dark fruits and some coffee malts. Lightly fizzy. Interesting beer.

Aug 24, 2008 A strong, sweet ale with hints of fruit and spices, the most dominant fruit taste is apricots. Finish is slightly bitter, rounding out the taste. There is only a slight alcohol taste, so it goes down smooth for being such a strong beer. It also pairs well with heavy food.
