Nov 27, 2007 30cl bottle. Clear deep copper with a active, foamy medium off-white head that settles to a thin layer in 3-4 minutes. Fruity aroma with figs and rasins, some spiciness, and a bit of bubblegum sweetness as well. Highly carbonated which adds to a sharpness on the palate, medium body. Sweet toffee flavor with some spicy bitterness to provide good balance. Very enjoyable.

Nov 24, 2007 Bottle. Reddish brown color with a beige head. Aroma: Typical belgian. Spicy and sweet with notes of cloves, cardamom, oranges, syrup, cherries and some lighter hops. Taste: Sweet malt, oranges, alcohol, belgian yeast, cloves, cardamom, caramel and cherries. A high quality beer, but a bit too sweet for me. Belgian strong ale isn´t really my favorite beer type.

Nov 23, 2007 Pours mahogany with an amber hue, and a thick brown head. Strong sweet aroma of fruity bubblegum, with notes brown sugar, and spicy/minty overtones. Flavor is fruity sweet and spicy. Bubblegum and brown sugar hit right upfront, and last through the finish of clove, mint, and slight alcohol. Yeast throughout, just a hint of cocoa somewhere in there, and a nice undertone of oranges. Palate is medium/full, smooth, somewhat viscous, with some fruity and spicy flavors hanging on for a long finish. Nicely balanced, and certainly what I am looking for in a holiday ale. Best Corsendonk I’ve had so far.
