Gulden Draak

Bottle in a trappist glass. For something "Gulden," it’s pretty dark - a very clear brown-amber. Nice head, too. Aroma of spice, nut, bread, and sweet fruit. Caramel toffee sweetness builds atop a strong malt background, accompanied by a bit of yeastiness. Finishes to alcohol and spice. This beer knows what it’s trying to do and does it well. Powerful, warming, and pleasantly sweet. I’m surprised I’ve never tried this one before.

Bottle Beer Bistro. Nice dark pour with a strong malty spicy aroma. Definatly a heavy beer. I can really taste the alcohol in it. That is normally a minus for me but this time I think its a real throat warmer. I’d drink it again.

Bottle at Miami Valley Beer Festival. Deep, dark brown hue on this one. Quite the sugary beer, crystal or candy sugar? Big alcohol kick to this, too. Quite good. (#3706, 10/24/2009)

Clear medium brown with a fine brown head. The aroma has notes of sweet fruits and berries, alchohol and dust. Flavor is medium sweet with bitter berry notes, a little too much alchohol but overall very enjoying.

Had on tap at the Gingerman Fort Worth. Grapes, other dark fruit, and alcohol. Tastes of malts and is very heavy.

Draft at redlight redlight. Pours a dark but translucent amber. Raisins and prunes in the nose. Sweet with lots of dark malts, bready. I like it better than most golden tripels. Decent beer.

Bottle. MAlt and caramel in aroma. Brown colour with high light brown head. Sweet caramel flavour with alcohol.
