330 ml bottle. Date not on bottle but I suspect it’s a couple of years old. Pours dark brown with medium head. Aromas of nutty brownies, brown sugar, roasted malts, some dark fruit and spice, Flavors of nuts and vegetables, dry brown sugar, heavy malts. A little oily

A dark brown beer with a nice lacy beige head. Aroma is very vinious. Also some sourness and after a while some dark fruits. Nice sweet fruity flavors. Some alcohol (at the end), burned caramel and malts. Maybe a bit to much?

Had it on tap before now drinking from bottle brewed with maple sirop from Quebec. The sirup makes the beer too sweet. The color is brown

Draught at ZBF 2005. Poura dark brown, with a tan head. Aroma is malty, spicy, and a litle sour. Taste is way to sweet. It overpowers the malts and yeast notes allmost completly

Clear dark/brown almost rubis poor with a frothy beige head. Aromas of cental wood, roasted malts, cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup and a nice bushy smell to it. Very sweet palate with a balanced bitter mouthfeel. Added orange flavors with a celery salt twist. Good effervescence and a medium body. Again very sweet but balanced enough to even things out.

Aroma dolce e fruttato con una leggera punta acida. Si presenta bruna con un solido cappelo di schiuma. Ingresso in bocca lievemente carbonato con un apporto dolce e acido definito dallo sciroppo d’acero. Emerge verso la fine una discreta nota luppolata ed erbacea. Il tutto "decorato" da una struttura alcolica di fondo. Potrebbe risultare stucchevole ma almeno per me è stata una bevuta piacevole.

pours dark root beer brown with lots of large bits of sediment (like a snow globe), pours with a large foamy head, light sticky lacing, some slow streams. Dark sweet malts, light woodiness, and maple wood. Tastes with a pleasant 7/10-sweetness, tastes of maple syrup, cola, root beer, creamy mouthfeel, vanilla, malts, (a bit of westv tastes in here), caramel, finishing sweet malty minimal bitter. Medium complexity, medium-high depth, good carry, good transitions, excellent drinkability.

Molt curiosa. Olor acaramelada i molta acidesa en boca. Molt vinosa. Es nota que el xarop amb qué es fa agafa molt de protagonisme. Les persones clàssiques que s’abstenguin de provar-la. Interessant.

With the promise of maple in a Belgian Strong Ale I had decent hopes this might produce the appropriate reaction. Dark brown with a thick rocky magnolia head there was a medicinal slightly maple slightly spice nose. To taste there was just too much confected sugary spice which was almost as bad as Ale Mary. No way.

Hazy brown with an impressive creamy head. Raisins and maple nose. Sweet aroma, nearly not identifid carbon. Sweet notes like raisins, datle, candle sugar, fernet. Sweet finish. B@H
