| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 1, 2008 Bomber, shared. Pours a gorgeous dark-brown color with a small white to off-white head. Aroma is dark fruit, spice, and slight candy sugar. Flavor is sweet up front dissolving into a subtle but very pleasant dark fruit characteristic at the end. You could also faintly taste cinnamon and I believe a little allspice in there. I enjoyed this beer immensely, and it’s a wonderful companion for a cold holiday night.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 30, 2007 Bottle. Brown-sugar coloring. 1/4" thick soapy head. limited carbonation. Raisin, dates, brown sugar hints, somewhat spicy. Flavoring is somewhat flat though the raisin/date/grape comes out subtlely at the finish, as does a faint not of spice, cinnamon. Eh. Had hoped for better here. CelticBrew (691), The Crystal Coast, North Carolina, USA

Aroma of plums, raisins, malts, and yeasts. Flavours of banana’s, vanilla, malts with a slight hop character that gives this beer a nice balance. A wonderful beer from our friends in Belgium, would love to try this one on tap or from cask too. alobar (1015), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA

A great dark amber with a medium off-white head and a rich aroma of mixed spices, yeast, alcohol and sweetness. The flavor is mildly sweet, malty and a bit spicey with hints of brown sugar. A nice mild hoppy finish, this is a really nice Christmas beer Adenila (936), Denmark
