SchwillyWilly (3), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA does not count May 26, 2008 Absolutely amazing beer. This is a must try for anyone who appreciates good beer. Pure magic! chimplechamp (463), Oslo, Norway May 26, 2008 pure brilliance- pours cola rootbeer brown cloudy with brilliant frizzy tightknit head. nose is liquorice, slight chocolate, yeasty bread, caramel, and belgian sugars. taste is just as complex. a great beer. classic stuff. amishcaravan (237), Winona, Minnesota, USA May 25, 2008 pours an amber color. floral scent with belgian yeast and carmel. taste is the same with some roast as well. Alcohol is well hidden as well. I would purchase again. rayOfBeer (316), El Cerrito, California, USA May 25, 2008 Poured from 750ml bottle a burnt red-brown with large creamy tan head and lots of carbonation bubbling. Aromas of dark fruit, yeast, brown sugar, and light banana. Flavor pours in when this beer hits the right temperature. Brown sugar, raisin, fig, plum, banana, wheat, malt, yeast, an acidic spiciness, and a bit of dough. The finish is warm with alcohol. The alcohol is overwhelming when the beer is colder, but nice when the beer warms. Overall, a top of the line beer, easy to find, and one I’ll drink anytime. texasbartender (160), Sugarland, Texas, USA May 25, 2008 The beer pours a deep amber with an off white head that is made up of tiny bubbles and is mostly lasting, the beer is full of tiny pieces of sediment. The nose is deep and a mix of fresh bread, roasted malt, slight hops, orange, lemon, stone fruit, spices, coriander, and cinnamon. The beer fills your mouth with carbonation and a light airiness. The front of the taste is a mix of sharp alcohol and sweet malts, the sides of the tongue really pick up the citrus notes and the back is a well balanced mix of malts and spice. The finish is sweet malts with fresh yeast and is mostly lasting. gonzo46and2 (108), Tampa, Florida, USA May 22, 2008 I remember distinctly that I liked this beer but liked the tripel much better. Aroma was of dark fruits and pretty heavy on the alky-hol. Dry finish. Will taste again. joekinty (263), rockledge, Florida, USA May 22, 2008 In my opinion this is one of the besr ales i have ever tasted lots of flavor and aroma has a nice alchoholic warming sensation. This is a must have in my house DTM (541), Winters, California, USA May 19, 2008 Bottle from BevMo in Vacaville, CA. Poured a reddish brown with a brown head. Like many other Belgian Strong Ales it smelled of dark fruits and just a hint of floral scents. Tasted of dried fruit, carmel and roasted malts. Hit the palate just right. WOW!!
