Oct 26, 2008 Una dubbel decisamente ’carica’ con una splendida dolcezza e sentori balsamici al naso, un corpo un po’ troppo leggero (e frizzantezza inadeguatamente elevata) ma sapore pieno e avvolgente, con note di uvetta e cannella.

Oct 25, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy brown with a large off-white head that faded to a film by mid-glass and left partial lace. Pleasant aroma of yeast, brown sugar, and a bit of spice. The flavor is caramel, yeast, brown sugar and some spice. Mild bitterness at the finish and a bit dry towards the finish as well. I had read the description on the bottle before opening this beer and was expecting ’’rich malt with notes of port, raisins, and black chocolate,’’ none of which I experienced. Still, a solid beer.

Oct 20, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Wow, superior to St. Bernardus Pater 6 even. Beautiful bouquet, sweet dark fruits galore. Another awesome, bubbly, tickling the tongue mouthfeel. Only problem: finishes a little too dry. Very nice.

Oct 18, 2008 Bottled to a trappist glass. Dark brown body with amber hints, highly frothed beige head, you can hear the carbonation like a soda. Aroma is vinous, fruity, apple, brown sugar, smokey, rye, slightly chocolate, prunes, and obviously yeast. Palate is noticeably soft and smooth. Flavor is vinous, pumpernickel bread, indeed slightly chocolate, raisins, yeast, and not very bitter. Nothing it overwhelming, its balanced, and its very smooth.

Oct 15, 2008 My first Belgian brown. Quite tasty. Big big head lots of retention. Nose of Cinnamon and spice. Flavors of dark roast compliment a medium palate. Finish of warm alcohol and lingering cookie. Great!

Oct 5, 2008 It poured dark brown with ruby highlights and tan fluffy head, settling quickly. Sort of a winey aroma with some burnt sugars and cherries. The flavor is slightly sweet and malty with a hint of roasted bitterness and the nice bready mouthfeel. I think it’s delicious and well balanced with subdued complexity. VERY drinkable. Cheers!
