Gouden Carolus Cuvee Van De Keizer Blauw/Blue

dark ruby in color with a beige head. Lacing is most excellent as well as the head retention. Being a boulevard fan it is much like the sixth glass quad. Excellent beer, but maybe a bit too sweet

2008 bottle. Would be very very nice with 3 to 5 years of age on it. A little hot right now. With a large, rocky, off-white head with a dark brown body. Aroma of alcohol, cinnamon, brown sugar, banana, and raisins. Very hot, but would age brilliantly. Taste is alcohol, spices some wheat and toastes malts. Lively bubbles.

Biere de couleur rousse avec un mince collet non-collant. Odeur d’alcohol, sucré, cerises et un peu de chocolat. Gout d’humidité, sucre et un petit coté bonbon.

(From the archive) Reddish brown under slight greyish head. Touch of sherry on the aroma along with nougaty malts and alcohol. Sweet nougat and alcohol in the mouth.

Pours an amber brown color with a light brown head. Aroma is malty, caramel, raisins, chocolate, prune, and a sweet sugary finish. Flavor is malty, caramel, prune, some cocoa, and a bitter sugary finish.

75cl bottle from KIngdom Liquors (Tampa, FL). Bottle labeled 2007. Pours a dark brown to black with a thin off-white head (bottle did not pop much when opened). Aroma is sweet and malty with dark ripe fruit, candy sugar, phenol comes through. Flavor is wonderful with notes of raisins, ripe plums, molasses, and bread. Medium to full-bodied with a sweet and malty finish. Excellent ale.

This beer kicks ass. I love it. I cant wait to drink some more. I want more and more and more and more and more and more. Thank You

draft @ uber - ruby reddish-orange and slightly cloudy with off white head; very sweet overall with nice kick of fruit; smooth, syrupy texture and almost juice-like; very nice, but way on the sweet side
