(bottle into a duvel tulip) Aroma of sweet malts, ethanol and apricots. Pours a cloudy mahogany with dirty white head. Fizzy with a shallow finish. Notes of ethanol and sugar cookies. Not too shabby.

Sep 5, 2008 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.

Aug 31, 2008 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!

does not count  Aug 29, 2008 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.
