Espectacular cerveza de la que te tiras todo el rato diciendo, q buena, q buena. Presencia espectacular, negro amarronado con espuma blanca q te deja espuma oscura en su tramo final. Toques dulces de chocolate y ligeros toques a cafe y canela. En boca se queda el sabor durante muchas, muchas horas...estoy deseando tomar otra ya!!!

Kosmokrator (289) - ITALY - MAR 19, 2013
Scura e leggermente torbida, con un massiccio cappello di schiuma beige. Aroma dolce ed intenso con sentori di uvetta, castagne, fichi, toffee e malto debolmente abbrustolito; gusto dolciastro e rotondo che riprende le stesse note. Corpo irrobustito dall’alcool, struttura vinoso-liquorosa e finale bilanciato e persistente per nulla stucchevole. Ottima!

Jesterdeal (1042) - Marlton, New Jersey, USA - MAR 17, 2013
Bottle shared at beers of the world. Aroma is great with some good dark fruit notes. Prunes, dates, and a slight cleaning agent smell. Pours brown with a thin film. Taste is great with sweet dates being predominant and some molasses sweetness overall. A great belgian brown to share with friends. Good stuff.

langeveld12 (101) - NETHERLANDS - MAR 12, 2013
Pours an average frothy light brown head that mostly diminishes. Body is hazy, sparkles are visible. Body is red brown. Aroma contains molasses, citrus fruits, dough, banana, grape, raisin, plum, cherry, tawny port, vanilla, cola and spices. Flavor goes from light acidic to sweet and bitter and finishes in a mixture of all three. Body is medium, with creamy texture and lively carbonation. I enjoyed this one very much.

Grzesiek79 (2352) - Radom, POLAND - MAR 12, 2013
Znakomite piwo, o pięknym ciemnym kolorze, z wielką pianą lekko bezowa. Aromat toffi i jakby winiaka. Nuty winne także przeciskają się przez karmelową słodycz. Wspaniała klasa i jakośc tego piwa mi imponuje. Polecam kosztowanie wyrobów browaru Caracole.

Plum, licorice, malts, caramel, toffee, quite carbonated which keeps the alc in check.

Dark, brown, thick head which lasts a while. Subtle aromas of tea and a hint of caramel. Flavours of Malts, yeast with an after taste of tea. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

valpoaj (531) - Valparaiso, Indiana, USA - MAR 2, 2013
Pours a burnt deep brown - very thin tan head that lingers as a film. Aroma is a chameleon - one second I’m getting heavy brown sugar and candied malt, the next I’m picking up heavy banana, and the other thing I’m getting is a telltale Belgian yeast - but these rarely meld...odd, but intriguing (also getting some toffee in there the more I sit with this). Flavor is brown sugar, caramelized malt, biscuit & yeast...finishes with a very strong candy sweetness. Palate is medium bodied - warming boozy finish, but remains a relatively easy drinker. Not half bad!
