Brewer101 (162), New Jersey, USA Mar 7, 2007 very good beer, offered to me by a friend who got it in a trade. Enjoyable flavor and after taste. kreepindeth (405), Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA Mar 7, 2007 Aroma of mild hops, metal, and yeast. Light mouthfeel with noticeable alcohol presence and a dry, bittersweet finish. hayduke (1621), Eureka, California, USA Mar 5, 2007 The neat lookng bottle was $7.68 at my local North Coast Coop in Eureka. It poured a garnet red color wtih floating chunks I suppose must be yeast. Head is tan with big fat and long lasting bubbles. Lacing was moderate. Nose was complex and of malts, fruits, coffee, chocolate, and a little hops. Mourthfeel was excellent with smoothness and the alcohol is hidden well. Flavors are excellent and mirror the aromas. Finish good with a hint of bitterness. A simple delightful brew to drink and well worth the price. jredmond (1015), New Jersey, USA Mar 2, 2007 Updated: Apr 23, 2008I tried this right after the delirium tremens, I favored the tremens over this brew. However, this one was sweeter, still easy to drink despite the high alc content. Thanks Steve (Chef201atc) Beltramelli (471), Campinas, Brazil Feb 26, 2007 Delight, really! Dark-red coloration. It gives pra to perceive a light suspension. Dense, consistent and very persistent cream. In the nose, evident notes of chocolate, coffee and toasted malt. In the palate, the party starts of truth. Made velvety and creamy texture. Red fruits, chocolate and toasting. Perfect carbonation, almost imperceptible alcohol and incredible aftertaste. Wonderful beer................................................PORTUGUÊS: Que delícia, meu povo!
Coloração escuro-avermelhada linda. Dá pra perceber uma leve suspensão, que não incomoda nem um pouco.
Creme muito denso, consistente e persistente. No olfato, evidentes notas de chocolate, café e malte torrado.
No paladar, a festa começa de verdade. Textura aveludada e cremosa. Dá pra perceber frutas vermelhas, chocolate e torrefação. Carbonatação perfeita, álcool quase imperceptível e bem colocado.
Retrogosto incrível. Uma cerveja pra apreciadores.
jalichio999 (502), Brazil Feb 25, 2007 Updated: Sep 3, 2008Notas de chocolate, cereja e torrefação. Carbonatada. Amarga. Álcool bem inserido. Conjunto ímpar, uma vez que nunca senti essa combinação de sabores em uma cerveja. auderale (572), Fairchild AFB, Washington, USA Feb 25, 2007 Dark brown colored pour with a nice medium sized head. Yeasty, sweet aroma with a nice sweet nutty finish. I enjoyed this. Zymologist (30), Lakewood, Ohio, USA Feb 23, 2007 The bottle promised me visions of pink elephants. Or at least that’s what I thought. After opening and pouring and tasting, I get the feeling that Huyghe was trying to develop a beer that tastes like you are licking the skin of a pink elephant. Not awful in itself, but awful in that it thinks its better than it is. In other words, it’s arrogant. I hope it doesn’t corrode the pipes as the rest of this goes down the drain.
