May 3, 2008 25.3 oz bottle from the Media, PA location. Pours a hazy coppery-reddish color with a one finger heas that settles into a thick collar & sticks to the glass. Aroma is of sweet fruity red wine. At first sip, the flavor matches the aroma exactly. There’s an initial sweetness followed by a dry tartness. If I didn’t know better, i’d swear this was a glass of red wine and not beer! As the beer warms, the sweetness seems to fade and a dry spicyness becomes apparent. Mouthfeel is medium fullness with some sparlke from the carbonation. Overall, this is one damned fine brew IMHO!

Mar 26, 2008 Tap at Wilmington. Hazy orange color. Tastes of yeast, brown sugar and an array of fruit; candied oranges and cherries. Medium to heavy bodied. Tangy finish. A very good dubbel.

Mar 9, 2008 Blind tasting at Papsoe. Clear brown colour with a little head. Aroma of oak, wine-like, grapes and sweet maltness. Sweet smooth flavour with notes of malt, alcohol and very little chocolate and caramel.

Feb 29, 2008 On draft at North Wales. Pours a dark mahogany with a medium white/beige head. Weak aroma of banana and clove. Taste is much the same- watery banana and clove. Nothing special.
