Bottle from De Bierkoning @ home, ABV 8,5%. Beautiful dark brown colour with a red hue, off white/tan head. Sharp aroma of sour dark fruits, like plums and some forest fruits, malts and brown sugar. Flavour is sweet-sour fruits, alcohol, malts and some brown sugar. Slightly bitter finish. Thick and prickly mouthfeel.

This is my favorite of the three Delirium beers. This one’s a nice honey brown color that smells and looks great. It has a big head so pour carefully. It’s nice and sweet with a fruity flavor that you can’t miss. At 9% ABV, you won’t feel it until you try to walk around. It goes down VERY smoothly! It’s one you must try!

Bottle. Pours a deep amber/red color with a thickish off white head. Aroma of fruit, malt and yeast. Tastes initialy sweet and finishes a bit bitter.

Aroma: very subtle, almost too much so. Appearance: head comes out nice, but lacing doesn’t last, very dark honeyed brown color. Flavor: there are a lot of different things going on, there are dark fruits, some honey, quite a bit of bitterness, but something tasts slightly off. Palate: definitely hides the alcohol well, i believe with sweentess. style is thin, but overall a pretty good representation of the style.

This one is not as good as the others, the bitterness is unpleasant and their is a soy sauce like saltiness to it. Not my favorite

750 from Carytown Wine and Beer, Richmond (RIP). Clear amber pour, with not a whole lot of carbonation going on. Overriding sweet malts in the aroma, lacking much in the way of spice notes or anything particularly complex. A tad boozy at the start, though there are elements of yeast and some pepper in there to give some depth to the brew. Slick malty finish, makes this an average strong ale.
