| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 23, 2007 It´s a very good beer but I don´t like the fizzy carbonatation. I think that´s my kharma. Good body, nice aroma.. very good taste, citrus, malt, and sweet hops.. but that carbonatation....
Is a little bit alcoholic as well jcr (1146), Jasper, Indiana, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 22, 2007 Draft. Cloudy, dark brown body with creamy off-white head. Strong aroma of malts, caramel and butterscotch and fruits especially mashed banana, raisin, plum and grape. Notes of citrus and mustiness, cobwebs The flavor is sweet and only lightly bitter — actually more tart than bitter — in the finish. Medium to full body. Creamy mouthfeel. Nice carbonation. Good beer. wingman333 (236), San Antonio, Texas, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | May 21, 2007 750 ml. bottle...very fizzy, flavors of dates, chocolate, apples; a fair amount of head, which was off-white in color. Aroma was very pleasing at first but smelled foul once the glass was empty. Still, it did not detract from what was a most enjoyable dark Belgian. chicagobears (336), Elk Grove Village, Illinois, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 19, 2007 330ml bottle. Pours a dark ruby brown. Aroma of coffee and brown sugar. Has a bitter chocolate and coffee flavor. This reminds me of some Porter. This is quite good, but I like their Tripel better. mjg74 (1995), La Mesa, California, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 15, 2007 Large beige fizzy head that mostly lasted. Fair lacing. Dark mahogany color. Caramel, yeast, fruit, spice, light toasted notes and what I felt to be light herbs. Medium bodied with an average carbonation and light alcoholic warming texture. Flavor was moderated sweet with some bitter notes. Sweet and light alcoholic warming finish.
