joshuah (37), Ferndale, Michigan, USA Dec 4, 2005 Draft @ Woodward Ave Brewery. Nice brown color, small white head. Very complex nose. Picked up fruity mixed with bubblegum. Taste is very complex, and with a peppermint finish. Even with the high alchohol which I normally don’t like, I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Really liked it.
Lord_Corkscrew (560), Ronco Scrivia (GE), Italy Sep 7, 2008 Porco boia che buona la Gouden Carolus; se vi dico che mi aspettavo tutt’altra birra mi credete?? Versa di un colore scuro bellissimo con schiuma beige chiara, molta e compatta; l’aroma è complesso e dolce, un poco vinoso, caramelloso ma con sentori di legna bruciata e di sera d’inverno. Il sapore è fantastico e intrigante, una complessità di cacao, ribes nero e crema di latte si ammoscia leggermente nel mezzo in un calore alcolico pronunciato per poi rispuntare nel finale e nel retrogusto. Una birra stratosferica. romeogolf (4), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada does not count Sep 3, 2008 750ml bottle bought from Brewery Creek and poured into a Chimay chalice. Deep garnet in colour with a full, tight, cream head. Malty aroma with cherry, prune, and raisin. Moderately malty and sweet taste; smooth with slightly bitter finish. Moderate carbonation and medium body. Dark, smooth, complex, warming. JuStuka (143), , Mexico Sep 2, 2008 Dark brown color, Flavor malty and has sweetness of dried fruits and a bit sourness in the finish gary07734 (145), Tyne & Wear, England Aug 31, 2008 0.33l bottle into trappist glass.
