UPDATED: AUG 11, 2003 they were flogging old bottles of this off for 4.50 which is a pretty good deal. aged, it's a helluva lot nicer - still very sweet, but not cloying or stickily so, just very smooth and creamy. tastes woody, strongly marzipanny, and vanillaish. those are some dodgy adjectives i know.

Toasted Aroma, copper head, bubbles, thin, slightly sour and tart, interesting.

Nice amber coloured beer. Good Koninck taste, though i like the original De Koninck more. But maybe it was the mood i was in, which made the Cuvee less good than the original. I might rerate it sometimes.

dark amber colour, fine head, some cherry aroma, very malty, bitter, very kong fruity and spicy finish - warming and very pleasant
