Nightfall (1231) - Hamburg, GERMANY - JUL 24, 2006
UPDATED: JAN 26, 2009 33 cl bottle. Hazy golden color, medium head tha fades rather quickly. Sweet fruity aromas and so is the taste. A class lower than the Abt/Quadrupel of La Trappe but a very nice beer nevertheless.

TheJester (1230) - Peterborough, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 19, 2008
750 mL bottle. Hazy copper with a small but short-lived white head. The aroma is very appealing: tart fruit, toffee, spice, alcohol and citrus. Flavour is more sweet than tart, with fruit and spice hiding most of the alcohol. Medium full with surprisingly little finish. Still a damn fine adult beverage.

Lowe1983 (1226) - Dayton, Ohio, USA - JUN 15, 2009
Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is dark fruits, caramel malts, and a hint of alcohol. Flavor is similar with a dry almost sweet finish. Slight warming but not too much.

Bottle: After the double this is one is slightly behind, a bit too strong offsetting other flavors. Finish is a bit rotten.
