[1104-20080216] Tap @ Stumbling Monk (Seattle, WA). Sweet fruit aroma has some heavy malty banana. Hazy, amber orange body with a quick bubbly white head. Sweet fruity grains and Belgian yeast flavour has a bit of boozy wheat banana. Medium body. Lots of heavy yeast characteristics.

Jun 13, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clear, dark amber body with a thin, off-white head.
Smell: Fruity nose smelling of cherries and plums seasoned with cinnamon and other various spices. Some toasted caramel, too.
Taste: Dark carmelly maltiness with some toastiness to it. A smidgen of candi sugar. Oh, and the spices. Oh, and that fruitiness. Slight doughy yeastiness. Some mild hop bitterness. Sticky, fruity, semi-dry finish.
Mouthfeel: A bit beyond medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Fairly tasty and rather easy to drink given the alleged ABV. Not bad at all!

Jun 10, 2008 A toasty biscuit aroma with dried fruit. Almost amber brown pour with a sticky clinging lace and head. Very abv warmth jumps out at you. Vanilla flavor and a good bitter. Good carbonation but just a tad thin. Solid all round good smooth warm beer.

Jun 7, 2008 Received 12-oz bottle from Liquid Solutions.biz in Portland, Oregon. Pours a semi-clear amber brew with a thin off-white head that quickly dissipates. Aroma of fruity caramel malt, some raisin, roasted nuts and a touch of yeast funk. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonated with a light tart fruit and caramel malt flavor with a touch of pepper. Finish is semi-sweet, some alcohol bite with a fruity malt aftertaste that slowly disappears. A nice fruity Belgian ale.
