3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 GuillaumeCL (287) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - APR 19, 2013
Bottle from Omni. Pours a clear (though nearly opaque) black/dark brown with a bit of brown head that dissipates and rings quickly. Smell is quite sweet with molasses and toffe, but also a some biscuit and toasted malt, and a good amount of alcohol smell, maybe just a hint of grass. Palate is on the lighter side of medium bodied with slightly lacking carbonation. Taste is quite sweet overall, though different kinds of sweetness over time, starting with a bit of a brown sugar raw sweetness, but having a bit of fruity sweetness, and ending in a bit of a cake sweetness. Aftertaste has a good amount of alcohol warming in it, but it’s not entirely unpleasant. Pretty decent dopplebock, but could be better.

On tap at St Augustine’s on The Drive in Vancouver. A bit of tan head. A murky dark brown in color. Sweet and fruity on the nose. Marvellously rich, malty, sweet and fruity in the mouth! A winner!

Now for the tasting:
dark brown colour
head is foamy and creamy. Almost a meal by itself.
nice bouquet
sweet and rich taste, one for the lovers of trappiste beers (which includes me)
This is one little cracker that hides it’s alcohol very well.

750 ml bouteille bouchon liège, peluso. Brune très foncée avec un doigt de mousse. 8,6%. Mélasse, chocolat, biscuit, prune, orange ( pris sur la bouteille).
Peu d'amertume, mais le houblon est quand même perceptible. Effervescence plutôt faible.
Bonne bière sucrée forte.

25.4 oz bottle, vintage 2011. Dark brown with a spongy beige head. Nose is raisin and toffee with hints of vanilla and boysenberry. Medium to full body with fuzzy carb. Taste is almond brittle, candi and sherry soaked plums. Like a crazy melted candy bar.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 thedm (4773) - Fort Wayne, USA - DEC 29, 2012
This bottled brew from rbsg poured a head of dark brown colored bubbles that were and left behind a no visible carbonation hazy dark brown colored body and a fair lacing. The aroma was musty and dark malt. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The flavor contained notes of old ale dark malt and crisp hops. A decent one that I would consider drinking again.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 AlainG (633) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - DEC 27, 2012
Édition printemps 2011.
Elle est brune, opaque, aux reflets rouge, ayant une mousse dense qui se résorbe lentement en un mince voile. Une dentelle éparpillée se colle au verre. Au nez, on est frappé par le côté sucré des odeurs. Sucré par les figues séchées, avec sa caractéristique légèrement acidulée. Des senteurs de récolte, de blé, dans des champs à l’automne. Le terroir quoi. Un goût qui joue dans les mêmes champs. Au travers sa texture sirupeuse, ont perçoit d’autres fruits secs. Les dattes ou encore les raisins secs. Satisfaisant. (480-031212)
