HogTownHarry (3175), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada Jul 17, 2005 Updated: Aug 16, 2005 Bottle (330ml) - tulip glass. Poured very dark ruby-brown, huge off-white rocky, fomay head, complex lacing. Nose simliar to the blonde - slightly sour wine, solid sweet toasted malt, clove & spices, fruits and a little hops - some earthy, musty tones. Ashy, bitter, overripe raisin & fruit taste, quite sharp, young wine and somewhat harsh astringent mouthfeel. A little ashtray harsh bitter on the finish, but very nice bigger brewery belgian. Strangely, better in the bottle than on tap (in my experience) - a little tobacco harsh, but a nice change of pace
MikL (2), Ĺrhus, Denmark does not count Aug 21, 2008 This beer has a very strong aroma. The appearance is a bit hazy and the taste is pretty decent. fata2683 (62), APO, New York, USA Aug 21, 2008 This is an ok brune. It is way to sweet for me and there is next to no hop flavor. The sweetness adds to it’s drinkability but I think they should focus more on bringing some other flavors out. St. Feuillien Brune is alot better. Borresteijn (456), Amstelveen, Netherlands Aug 19, 2008 Bottle. Cloudy brown beer, off-white head. Aroma of malts, milk chocolate, fruits. Flavour is soft and rather sweet, malty and yeasty, dark fruits, just a little sourness. Very nice and soft dubbel. Angeloregon (1829), Portland, Oregon, USA Aug 17, 2008 On tap at Belmont Station in PDX--Poured a dark brown body with a thick beige-tan head. Roasty nutty coffee chocolate nose. Malty, subtle, spicy, aromatic, delicious beer worth a try. Yum! kubilai (15), , Canada Aug 14, 2008 Pours a gfreat dark-brown color with a beige foamy head. Aroma of roasted malt added with coffee, chocolate and spices. Malty taste but does not deliver what aroma promises. A good beer after all.
