jason (1620), Easton, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 16, 2008 Bottle. Poured a dark brown body with thin head. aroma is of caramel, yeast, brown sugar. Flavor is the same with a light body that is well carbonated and easy drinking. This one goes down fast. toukopouko (31), Salo, Finland Feb 15, 2008 Bottle, 75cl, corked. Beautiful dark brown pour, against light it becomes more red than brown. Very little head. A sweetish malty aroma with notes of coriander, yeast, fruits, dark chocolate. Full mouthfeel with lots of carbonation. -A sweet taste of roasted malt, apricot, ash, licorice and chocolate. Interestingly the metal packaging my bottle came in says that the beer has 8% alcohol, but the label on the bottle says 7,5% ! oldpainless (35), fort mill, South Carolina, USA Feb 12, 2008 Nice med. brown color. A bit more carbonation than I expected but not a drawback at all. Hints of fruit & spice give it a good flavor. Just the right amount of hoppiness makes for a good finish. I like this beer alot more than I thought I would & it is moving up in the ranks. MadMan (497), Tempe, Arizona, USA Feb 11, 2008 Bottle. Pours a medium brown with nice tan head. Aroma is yeasty with malt and dark fruits. Flavor is moderately sweet and definitely full of raisin with winelike notes and a full load of maltiness. Finish is clean with a hint of sweetness and spice. Very active and light carbonation offsets a slightly oily body for a good mouthfeel. Very tasty. GirlyBeer (183), Biddeford, Maine, USA Feb 9, 2008 Dark brown with a white head. Sweet like raisins with a hint of spice and an almost chocolate flavor. Belgian-y aroma. Medium bodied yet filling to drink. A tiny bit sticky in the mouth. AmEricanbrew (1747), Louisiana, USA Feb 7, 2008 Beautiful mahogany color with a thick tan head that sticks around, nice lacing. Slightly sweet smell and yeasty. Medium body with an almost oily mouthfeel. Nice taste is mildly sweet with raisons and chocolate. A good dubbel. 53106 hillfiiiiire (283), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Feb 7, 2008 A dark brown pour with a large off-white head that endures throughout the drinking. The aroma is a raisin and sugar sweetness. It’s very sweet in taste, but with a mild kick of spice to it and a little chocolate to go along. It has a very dry finish. dchmela (1406), Orlando, Florida, USA Feb 6, 2008 Pours a deep red with a yeasty frothy off white head. Aroma is yeast, plums, raisin, and malty sugary sweetness. As it warms, the aroma gets a little smoky. Big mouth full of carbonation. Taste is malty, candi sugar sweet, slight hint of smoke. Finishes clean with a little malt sweetness. A very good beer and good to find in Florida again.
