scoobyluv (469), Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA Sep 24, 2005 some lacing. smell of raisin with a watery raisin taste. not as good as Rodenbach Rastacouere (5258), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Jul 29, 2005 Flat brown, beautiful deep chestnut colored with no head. Nutty chocolate and cherries nose, earthy more than woody, nicely toasted malts taste good, but feel a bit out of place. Very fruity, figgy, plummy and apple-like. Rather subdued taste, faint candyish sweetness, licorice stick and light watery palate, a bit sticky and almost flat.. too bad. willblake (1923), Long Branch, New Jersey, USA Jul 21, 2005 07.16.05 Tap at BCTC. Cloudy brown, little head. Brown sugar, caramel apple, super sweet nose. Flat. Lots of sugar in flavor (brown sugar). Dominated by sugars, not a hint of sour. Prunes and dates. CapFlu (3254), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Jul 20, 2005 (Draught) Sampled at the Belgium Comes To Cooperstown 2005 in Cooperstown, NY. Pours a cloudy, reddish body with a dissipated white head. Smell of toasted pop tarts and fig newtons. Flavour of a thin watery, fig juice. Good. rudolf (1547), Buffalo, New York, USA Jul 17, 2005 BCTC. Kind of a let down after their great lambic. This is more like an old-ale than a flemish sour. Brown sugar & butterscotch nose. Those smells continue into the flavor and mingle with a bit of fruitiness. Oakey slightly cherry finish.
