Pours slightly hazy red/brown with a decent off white head. Aromas of caramel, chocolate and some dark fruit. Palate is malty with underlying raisin and clove characters. Finish brings alcohol and yeast driven spice that serves to balance the caramel malt.

330 mL bottle. A mega disappointment. After the likes of Tremens and Noël, this is not the dark version I was hoping for. Pours a dark ruby red with a modest off-white head. Aromas of dark fruit, cloves, coriander, alcohol. Taste is red licorice, red grapes, raisins, black cherries. Aftertaste is sour and sort of like cardboard. Very dull and unmemorable compared to other Belgians- especially upsetting since these are so damn expensive.

Medium brown pour with a sparse head. Yeasty aroma lead to a sweet medium body. Dark fruits, maybe cherry. Slightly thick, but very good on a Halloween night.

750ml bottle Pours a dark ruby red with a foamy tan head. Scent of light fruit, grapes, and yeast. Flavor is malty and very sweet, with a hint of grapes and caramel. A little too sweet for my tastes, but not bad.

Brown with a slight red tint, small whitish head. From a bottle like the one shown in the photo. Had a bubblegum scent. Tastes of licorice, fruit, tangy finish. Decent.

Bottle. Pours slightly cloudy brown-amber with a medium-thin off-white head. Big bubbles, some lacing. Smells sweet of raisins, figs, apples, caramel. Medium body, sharp and crisp. Flavor is quite fruity, a nice balance of sour than sweet. Almost like a sour ale or lambic in character. Mild hops flavor, hay and citrus.

On tap at the porter beer bar. Poured a reddish brown color with a decent off white head. Nice wild belgian yeast aroma with some straw and a little bit of fruit. Pretty sweet finish and a nice red fruit flavor with some cherry and plum mixed in there as well. Pretty decent drink but nothing incredible to make this one truly memorable.
