Jul 26, 2009 Dark brown body with an offwhite head. No lacing and high carbonation. Smells of raisins, caramel, orange, and malt. Mouthfeel is very carbonated like a sprite. Taste is of plums and raisins with some citrus notes. Very easy and smooth to drink. Slight hop bite. Good brew.

Jul 21, 2009 Bottle from the Bottle Shop in Brugge. Dark purplish brown color with a nice off-white head. Aroma of dark fruits, spices, malt, and yeast. Flavor more of the same, mostly malty with figs, berries, and spices. Smooth medium palate. Pretty solid stuff.

Jul 4, 2009 1st tried: 33cl Bottle in Brussels Belgium 2008. Great strong aroma gives intial hint of fruitiness, Dark, cloudy and almost a deep deep purple/brown in colour. The flavour is bold with strong fruity elements accompanied with spicy undertones. The beer provides an appropriate level of fizz with a generous finish. Really enjoy this beer and drink it regularly.

Jun 10, 2009 Easy to drink considering its high ABV. The "forbidden" dark fruit flavors are very mild, this is just a lovely individual medium-dark beer.

Jun 8, 2009 Got this from the local supermarket. Ferm Head that quietly faints. Smell is sweet and grainy. Tastes like herbs (grain, alcohol and a bit of coriander). Nice beer.
