(Tap) Pours a reddish golden color with a small white head. Aroma of sugar and light fruits. Typical yeast notes, with some clove and dark fruit in the taste. Specifically raisin and light caramel towards the finish. Good mouthfeel and decent body. A pretty good beer.

0.33l bottle at pub. Pours a nice dark colour, good head. Taste is malty and bitter, nice but not spectacular, plenty of better belgian ales out there. I prefer Maredsous 10.

A clear dark red colored beer, with a nice light beige foamed head. The aroma is nice, first there where cherries, some sweet and a little yeast. The taste is sweet, maybe a little to much for me. It’s light bitter, alcoholic, malt and it has a dry after tast. A more than nice beer.

Draft at Flying Saucer. A brown beer with a very nice head. It has a nice fruity aroma and a very powerful ale taste with quite a lot of bitterness for a Belgian beer. Really an enjoyable beer.

Pours a hazy amber-red color with a large, frothy head. The head sticks around a while and the beer has good lacing. Sweet, almost like bubble gum, with some hints of banana and vanilla. Sweetness in the flavor is somewhat more muted and fades even more in the aftertaste. Has a creamy texture with only slight carbonation. A very nice beer.

On tap at The Happy Gnome in St. Paul, MN. Red brown with small head. Not much aroma at all, much less aromatic than other Belgians. Taste of apple, caramel, hops, and a very sour taste to it. Tastes a bit like a tripel, but is darker a bit more sour. Disappointing as far as Belgians go.
