Nov 5, 2006 Very Tasty beer. Plum and alcohol aromas. Soft and full palate. Little on the sweet side, but very rich belgian taste. Finishes sweet but clean. Kind of flat also.

Oct 17, 2006 In the aroma I miss fruit. The aroma is heavy wich can be normal for heavy beers. The beer is sweet wich is a bit strange for more heavy beers. I prefer dryer beers with more aroma.

Oct 16, 2006 I had to buy a case of this gem... Very sweet subtile aromas, Caramel / toffee... Exploding sweet complexe flavors hard to pinpoint exactly ... There’s the obvious taste of alcohol in this 11% brown beauty but it doesn’t over power... Fanstaticly well balanced beer!

does not count  Oct 15, 2006 I have a big bottle on the top of my shelf. Relic... In my opinion the beer was so sweet and strong. So strong! The alcohol put down the flavour. It is not my favourite Belgian beer.

Oct 15, 2006 Bottle at home. Decent head, caramel colored. Very sweet, plums and toffees. I would say way too sweet and way too much alcohol in the finish. Probably an excellent beer for some -- but not for me.

Oct 3, 2006 (750ml bottle, cork 8/04) Pillowy, medium beige head atop a clear deep chestnut body. Nice lacing. Aroma is sweet, plum/raisin, vinous, caramel, some candi sugar, perfume. Taste is very sweet, caramel, plum, honeydew, light wood. Some alcohol warming in the finish. Smooth full body with low carbonation. With its sweetness, this seems like what Avery is trying to do with Beast or Samael, only this is better.
