| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 23, 2009 A nice ,straight up rich and malty ,robust Belgian ale. Christ knows how the Belgians get anything constructive achieved with beerz such as this every where you turn. Loads of banana esters and their ’in house yeast character’ is very ’there’ as a signature. Earthy chocolate ..boozy edges. deyholla (520), Bloomington, Indiana, USA

Large and lasting head too. $8.99 for 1p 9.4fl oz in my neck of the woods. Overall a good beer from the trappists! BgThang (118), Texas, USA
| 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | May 18, 2009 This is a big beer at 10% it smells like bubble gum, raspberrys and other hard coated candies. The taste is very much like the cheap hard candy raspberries with the gooey center in them that has the fake printed beery on the outside of wrapper that twist only at the top. This beer would get you drunk with out you even knowing it. It really is that smooth.
Had it at the dig pub in cedar park on tap
