WisconsinBeer (514), St Paul, Minnesota, USA Mar 28, 2008 Bomber bottle. Hazy brown, big foamy head. Flavor is slightly sour, yeasty bread, dry fruits. Light bodied, lots of carbonation. Nothing too special, decent enough. Tripplebrew (486), Saint Paul, Minnesota, USA Mar 28, 2008 Pours a dark chocolate brown with thick foamy tan head. Aroma is of hazelnuts, roasted malts, hops and fruity undertones. Flavor is of caramel and hops with dark chocolate/coffee undertones. Body is light with a lot of carbonation. ayyaiyai...carbonation MJGG (400), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Mar 28, 2008 Bouteille blanche de 33 cl. Arômes de fruits mûrs (dattes, pruneaux) et de caramel. Robe brune, belle effervescence, mais relativement peu de mousse. Le goût est fidèle à l’odeur: fruits mûrs, mélasse et caramel. L’alcool marque sa présence en arrière-goût. bpowers (24), USA Mar 23, 2008 750 ml bottle. A Pours a clear mahogany with many particles visibly suspended in the liquid. Nice 2 finger tan/white head. Aroma of doughy/tart yeastiness, roasted malts and a touch of alcohol. Taste is pretty one dimensional, almost all roasted malts. Not the deep roast but more toasty or lightly roasted. Its not a bad taste but pretty simple. The doughy yeasty profile is there too but somewhat subdued. Alcohol present in the finish as well as a little bit of that metallic taste. Medium bodied, a little thinner than I expected with a decent dose of carbonation to keep things interesting. Its not bad but really doesn’t live up the to Noel or the Tremmens both of which I really like. Good beer but nothing special, scores of better Belgian Strong Ales out there and even better ones from Delirium. A little disappointed by this one. travita (1861), Frisco, Texas, USA Mar 21, 2008 Reddish in color with a really big head. This beer really has some carbonation. Too much. Sweet and malty in the taste and the aroma. Fizzy and fruity. Lighter in body. Nekronos (2261), Xalapa, Mexico Mar 20, 2008 Awesome beer, it was a nice one after the dissapointment with the standar delirium. It has some coffee spots I like. I always tought they sued th Disney’s characters and apparently was the opposite judign the date of foundation of the brewery. Haslinger (640), Syracuse, New York, USA Mar 17, 2008 Pours brown with a MASSIVE HUGE annoying large overly carbonated head. When I opened it it bubbled all over the place and I ended up wasting a couple ounces. I am not sure if I poured it wrong or it is just insanely carbonated. On to the beer. Light tasting beer with a taste of raison and chocolate. good flavor. I wouldn’t buy again though
Also my bottle said the ABV was 8.5% not 9% texasbartender (160), Sugarland, Texas, USA Mar 16, 2008 The beer has light malty and yeasty aroma mixed with a hint of grape or raisin. The light brown almost off white head has a very fizzy apperance the lacing follows the beer about 2 inches above the beer and stays in the glass well after the beer is finished. The body is fairly clear with a brown amber slightly red color. I would describe the flovor of this beer as light to moderate, with moderate sweet and acidic components through out with a short almost acidic finish. The beer has avery light and watery mouth feel. Overall a good well blanced beer that I wouldn’t turn away but not seek out.
