Bottle - 750mL corked and caged. Called Scaldis Prestige de Nuits and has Cuvee Speciale 2009 on the towards the neck. Pours a dark, murky brown with a moderate tan head. Aroma is wine, grape skins, tart fruit, oak, damp wood, and sweet malt. Taste is sweet malt, light wine notes, tart fruit, wet wood, damp earth, cocoa, dusty yeast notes and dark fruit. Body is medium with a moderate, creamy carbonation and a very light acidic note. Only slight warmth from the 13% ABV. Ends with more cocoa, sweet malt, wine notes, oak, damp wood, yeast and dark fruit. Very tasty!

Finished a bomber of this fine unique beverage, in the very glass it was designed for. Thanks for sendng both BelgBeerGeek. Pours a blackish cognac coloured body with an initially notion only of a head. The aroma is rich wine (it was aged in such for 6 months), and the taste is secondary to this Belgian ale, with some chocolate. Special though not extraordinary special.Above average mouthfeel.

Big thanks again to SHIG for bringing the pain to the Tampa Crew this week. This was one of the most intriguing beers. Pours very hazy brown-yellow with a creamy off-white head. Nose is malt, vinegar, tart, sweet, lemon, citrus, and sugar. Flavor is similarly interesting: malty yet tart yet fruity yet tart yet sweet. A better mix of sweet and sour I cannot remember. Medium-bodied and very unique.

2008 bottle. Pours a dark copper to brown hazy color with a thin light beige head. Aroma of old dark fruits, oak, wine, liquorice and spice. Flavors are strong and complex, of dark berries and ripe bananas, oak and wine, liquore. Good carbonation, bitter, sour and tart, dry with a long lasting liquor finish. Very enjoyable, tonns of rich flavors, changes as you drink. A top brew.

Bottled @ UDRM. The aroma has sweetish berries and cherries, some wine and malts. Bit hazy, orange-brown coloured beer with an off-white, lasting head. The taste is sweet, caramel malty with a lot of fruits, some raisin. More alcoholic towards the end. Enjoyable.

750 ml bottle; shared by Mr. MJ himself during SBW ’09; reddish brown with fizzy off-white head; yummy aromas of red wine, yeasty spices and tart apples; fluffy, delicate mouthfeel and quite vinous; sort of reminds me of T20 with a delicate level of sourness and lovely texture

Flaske: Ravfarvet let uklar øl med et lille skumhoved. Duften er tydelig rødvinspræget med en let syrlig note. Man er dog ikke i tvivl om at det er en øl. Fantastisk kompleks smag af rødvin humle, alkohol og en smule tørret frugt. Fantastisk øl med lag på lag, som et løg ikke en lagkage.

Had this one @ Unofficial Dutch Ratebeer Meeting. Copper colored brew. Sweetness, fruits in both aroma and flavor.
