Bottle. Appearance: Dark red amber with a huge tan head. Aroma: Sweet fruity malts, cherry, yeast, very light hops. Palate: Medium. Flavor: Dried fruit, sweet malts, very slight metallic quality at first that disappeared as it warmed. Light hops. Overall: Finish is a bit bitter. Good beer but nothing very impressive.

Bottle. Amber colour with a nice head. Sweet aroma with yeast, dark fruits, roasted malt and alcohol. Good mouthfeel. The flavour has a good soft sweet roasty maltiness with spices, yeast, dark fruits, caramel and alcohol. Good spiced sweet finish.

A decent Belgian. Could be the belgians I already had in my system - or could be the beer itself. But this stuff gave me the hiccups. Nice malty flavor balanced by the hops. Pours an amber with tan head.

11.2 oz bottle-Dark brown color w/a good size off white head. Sweet Belgiam aroma w/flavors of candied sugar, brown sugar, & dark fruit. Kind of thin, this one was ok, but not as good as other Delirium Brews. Kind of rough, not as smooth & complex as finer Belgians.

750 bottle. Pours dark brown with a huge,thick head. Typical Belgium candy nose, with chocolate notes. Body gets thinner as it warms. Tastes a bit alcoholic, with candy sugar coming through strong. A decent dubble but certainly not "world class"

750 ml bottle. Fluffy white head and a muddy caramel brown pour. Very boozy throughout. Aroma and taste of sour fruit. Some metallic flavor which was off-putting. Between the heavy booze and the odd metal taste, I can’t say I enjoyed this one much.

It’s a beautiful red mahogany with a nice head. The aroma is sweet, slightly perfumes with notes of candy sugar and malt. The flavour is sweet with notes of roasted malt, candy sugar, light fruit, a very light citrussy bitterness and caramel. The overall impression is for me a very heavy and solid beer, that has a lighter part in the middle of the flavour. 2295

Bottle sampled. Pours a dark mahogany/amber color with a light tan head. Aroma of yeast, sweet malts, caramel, dried fruit and spices. Sweet and malty flavor with caramel, dark fruits, toffee, and some spices with a nice dry bitter finish.
