3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Hmm, rather funny, on the cap it says: "Malt Liquor"!?!?! Anyways, this beer porus murky dark brown, with a big fluffy tan head. Aroma is very sweet and fruity, a little acidity. Very alcoholic flavor, now i understand why the cap states Malt Liquor, very sweet. Very full bodied, but way to alcoholic IMO. It deserves a tad up for the wicked pirate on the label! Ship ohoy!

Very dark with massive off white head. Aroma is pretty cool, yeasty and malty with a hint of acetic edginess and fruit to it. Palate is good, malty enough to keep out any of the carbonated fizz. Must remember to try this again sometime, it was a bit of a random purchase.

In comparison to the Maredsous 8 Bruin, which is a fairly similiar beer, this falls short, this is probably a little yeastier, but also a a little thinner and less interesting. Caramel/toffee, some citrus rind (orange). Alright in the end, but not fave.
