Dec 23, 2007 Updated: Jan 18, 2008Bottle. Pours dark brown, surprisingly dark for a triple, with thick offi-white head. Aroma is of caramel, dark fruit, and brown sugar. Flavor is fruitly, caramel malts and yeast. Alcohol is well hidden. One of my favorite belgian ales.

Dec 21, 2007 Tased this brew at my favorite beer joint in Media, PA called Quotations. This one was just tapped and the beer was slightly warm so I was not able to enjoy it as I would have liked. Tasted chocolately with rich malty overtnes.

Dec 17, 2007 Pours a dark ruby-brown with a few fingers of white-tan head. Sweet odor of raisins and caramel malts. Thick, almost syrupy taste to it, really deep and sweet. Fruity and malty, and surprisingly good. I paid too much for this at a bad liquor store out of curiosity, but tasting it I do not feel nearly as ripped off now.

Dec 17, 2007 Picked this up on a whim. What a great whim it was. Bold color, aroma, and taste. Immediately went back and bought more.

Dec 17, 2007 Just tried this for the first time 2 days ago. Man, do the Belgians know how to make beer. This had a nice, dark color to it with a almost sweet caramel-like aroma. Went down with a bit of a bite, but it was an overall good drinking experience. Great with an amaretto cake.

Dec 14, 2007 Draft. I did not sense the high alcohol. Sweetness balanced by the complexity of the fruit. Enjoyable. DId not take adequate notes.

Dec 12, 2007 Pours a nice head that seems to form mountains and valleys. This stays with you through the serving. Dark and flavorful - almost tempting you for further investigation. Dark caramel and hoppy piney goodness abound. Yum!
