Commercial Description:
Has a very distinctive bouquet: yeasty, fruity and slightly smoky. In palate, it has notes of port, raisins and black chocolate. Editor's note: Apparently production has moved from Van Steenberge to du Bocq as of Sept 2007.

Bottle. Dark brown pour, with a nice average head. Aroma is malt, caramels, little roastiness. The flavor was amazing. The beverage was smooth, with a nice malt, caramel, and some chocolate taste to it. It finishes surprisingly easy.

Pours a cloudy brown with a lasting tan head. Sweet malty aromas, spicy belgian yeast and a hint of alcohol. Heavy dose of malt in the flavour, some yeast, chocolate. The palate is a bit thinner than I expected but otherwise a good beer.

Dark ruby, big beige head that quickly subsides, slightly tart rich malt aroma and flavor, chocolate fiqs, tartness subsides into a fine mellow brew, if only summits could get this quality from their lines, a decent sized glass too

Score: ii

dark brown with ruby highlights, frothy off white head, light bitter dark malt aroma, uninspired dry dark malt flavor with a touch of chocolate, finally picks up a hint of fruit but it is offset by some bitterness in the finish, looses all of its character on draft

Pours a dark brown with a off white head. Hints of dark chocolate, malts, sour fruits, and spices. Finishes with a yeasty spice on the tongue.

Pours a beautiful, clear garnet with a huge tan head that laces down the glass; certainly one of the prettiest beers I’ve drunk. Scent is malt, grape, soufdough, and something unusual I can’t recognize..is it yogurt-like, maybe? Flavor is dominated by dark malts, with hints of chocolate and caramel, tart grapes, pear, nuttiness, and light spice. Finish has a clean sweetness to it. Nice, although the non-malt flavors could stand to be a little more intense.

Bottle. Opaque dark brown with big white head that dissipates fast. Aroma of spices, metal, and water. Very sweet. Nutmeg plus lingering date sugar that can become cloying. Quite thin. Does not shine. Good, but not spectacular beer.

12oz bottle. Pours a very deep ruby red with a thick foamy off-white head. Aroma is light raisins, vinous, yeast, some spice. Flavor is very smooth malt, raisin, chocolate, light spice, yeast, some chocolate. Very easy to drink.
