Jun 25, 2008 75 cl bottle. Nice, but not as good as other belgian strong ales like Chimay Blue for an example. A bit lame in the flavour, pretty low bitterness, though it has some fine roasted flavours. Very fruity, raisin-like flavours.

Jun 23, 2008 On tap at the Flying Saucer (Charlotte, NC). Rated on 3/7/08. Poured a dark brown with thin tan head. Aroma was malty and sweet with notes of fruit and raisins. Taste is smooth, rich and earthy with notes of spice and ripe fruit.

Jun 18, 2008 Dark, almost opaque ruby-red with an off-white head that all but disappeared in a matter of moments, but left plenty of lacing. Aroma is fruity, with a mostly fig/raisin scent. but touch of alcohol, Taste is intensely malty, somewhat bitter and spicy fruit. Tart and alcoholic, but with a quick finish.

Jun 14, 2008 Draft at Wash-Duke. Deep mahogany color with a thin tan head. Rich nose of raisins, malt, burnt sugar. Very complex flavors mix plums, farmhouse funk, candy, alcohol. Interesting beer with a whole lot going on. Not an easy drinker. Finishes pretty clean. I enjoyed this, but don’t see a reason to spend the money on it again.
