Cerveza tostada, sus 8.5% se notan en el sabor. Aromática y con un toque dulzón al final. Muy buena

Bottle @ Taverna del Bucaniere. Profumi intensi di uva, lieviti e mou. Color rame, non perfettamente trasparente con lieviti in sospensione. Schiuma biancastra non omogenea. palato estremamente carbonato, ma di corpo medio/debole, e con finale breve secco. Gusto interessante di zucchero di canna caramellato, un bel sentore maltato e una punta di luppolo sul finale.

330mL brown glass pry-top. Back label dated BB 07.03.10. Bought at Super Marché Rahman in Montreal. Appearance: Poured into a tulip glass leading to 2 fingers or off-white creamy head atop a cloudy brown brew. Nose: Rather muted with some slightly sour stone fruit notes, some light caramel and milk chocolate notes. Almost like chocolate covered cherries. Palate: Medium bodied and with crisp/sharp carbonation. Lots going on here. The chocolate covered cherry thing continues and is met with strawberry and light toffee/butteriness. The palate is really sharp at first, but as the carbonation releases the taste buds, they are overwhelmed with fruit and dark candies. Notes: Had no earthly idea what to expect from this beer. I bought it simply because it was from French Flanders. Stunning beer. Wish we could get it here.

Smells like a typical red, biscuty maybe a hint of chocolate. Its a deep red clearish beer with an off white head. Malty taste with a bit of alcohol feel. Sweet medium body, i taste a hint of chocolate. It seems like it expands on your tounge when you sip it. Not a typical red but not bad worth a try

Brown hazy apppearance with a thick with head. Aroma: raisins, alcohol, toffee, nuts and caramel. flavor: salty, malty, alcohol, grassy, caramel and oregon. Palate: medium body, average carbonation with a chalky finish

Bière ambrée aux reflets rouges, claire et limpide. Donne une belle mousse couleur crème très abondante et qui ce renouvelle. Superbe apparence. Le parfum est riche en sucre, en alcool avec de bonnes notes maltées et de caramel. Sent un peu le scotch ou le whisky. Le goût est sucré avec un alcool très présent, liquoreux. On dirait presque que la bière est fortifiée, du moins elle goûte vraiment le spiritueux. Elle laisse une bonne sensation de chaleur. La bouche est ronde et crémeuse, bien pétillante. C’est une bière lourde avec une présentation légère, un intéressant mariage.

Aroma is malts, grains, a bit fruity and grassy. Sweetish grainy flavor is wood and some fruitiness with warming, sugary and hoppy finish.

11.2 oz bottle, poured gently so only a thin head developed, light amber color, smells like aged fenceposts, sweet malt, biscuity, some mild earthy hops. taste is malty, some nice yeast character, mild hop balance. Finishes bitter, lingers a bit. Some alcohol in the nostrils. Nice beer, evidently a Biere de Garde, although the bottle says French Red Ale and the commercial description is of a strong amber- I would call it an amber- Decent enough, but for the money there are better ones out there.

Pours a deep dark burgundy-purple with a beige head. Aroma of caramel, malt, yeast and grass. Taste full of alcohol and malt. Some sourness at beginning letting place to hops warmness and earthy finish. Intense, rough and fuzzy.
