750ml bottle, 7% a/v (My first beer with a cork! :-) )
Pours a cloudy ruby/chocolate colour with a dense offwhite head. Honey and cinammon in the nose with a smell of almost some sweet fruit liquor. Taste is somewhat alcoholic with a strong fruit presence, a nice spicy aftertaste on the tongue leaves you longing for another sip.. Definetly a nice beer when you wanna spoil yourslef.

Oct 9, 2008 Finally get a chance to do the notorious red. Bottle at the Hop House in Carnegie for $6.50. Very sparkley appearance. Hazy light brown. Good clean near candy aroma. Taste is rather strong and it doesn’t hide its alky content well. Very good creamy bubbly carbonation on the palate. Not as refined as many other belgie dubs I’ve had. Acceptable, none the less. Finish is a little coarse and difficult at times, somewhat like a strong ale.

Oct 4, 2008 Bought a load of these and found that they were best left for the best part of a year before drinking. Fruity. Spicy. Dark browny reddish colour!! Easy on the tongue. This one has grown on me over the years.
