Dec 21, 2002 Cloudy dark brown appearance. Hints of peach, alcohol and sweet malt in the nose. The body handles a solid hop presence with a substantial amount of sweet malt. Hints of fruit as well. A good Belgian Strong, probably would have had done it more justice to taste it on it’s own instead of at the end of 20 other beers.

Nov 13, 2006 Pours a deep dark amber w/ full semi creamy froth slowly receding to blanket and garter. Aroma of sweet steak and rock candy. Medium nectar w/ ample residual effers. Flavors approach malty sweet at first w/ dried fruit. Black cherry and plumb being the focus w/ some melon in there running around. There is a curious smokey earthiness about this brew. Finish is long on flavor w/ a slight acidic style bittering yet stays sweet. Overall: sweet and earthy. Slightly out of balance. Goes well w/ grilled, seasoned chicken.

Dec 17, 2002 A maroon/redish brown color with a persistent head. The aroma is slightly sweet and slightly tart, with notes of apples, molasses, caramel, nuts, and spices. Easy drinking with well-hidden alcohol. One of the best Christmas beers I’ve had yet.
