gws57 (1131), Saint Charles, Illinois, USA Sep 24, 2006 Found this one bottled in Belvidere, Illinois. Dark brown pour with a light tan head, very alcoholic throughout, nose of peanuts and coffee, finished clean but medicinal. Dissapointing. Arnie (272), Chicagoland, IL, Illinois, USA Sep 23, 2006 Bottled, Thick, dry, and alcohol-y finish, mild malty/hoppy nose. Dark brown with a thick head. harmfuldrunk (288), New Jersey, USA Sep 16, 2006 750 bomber pours nice brown with beige head. taste is crisp and a bit bubbly, very dry, accohol tasting.
not very into it and not really my favorite style of beer yet its good. TimE (1300), Tokyo, Japan Sep 14, 2006 Dark brown color with nice Brussels lacing. Candy sugar, cherries and chocolate nose. med-light mouth, surprisingly alcoholic. Chocolate, cherries, brandy, earthy notes in mouth. Dry alcoholic finish. ilikestuff (222), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Sep 13, 2006 Deep red color with a light tan head. Has a strong hard candy flavor, probably from Belgian candy sugar. Highly carbonated, this brew seems to dance on your tongue. Dedollewaitor (3625), Odense, Denmark Sep 12, 2006 Nut brown. Aroma and taste of sweet malts. A bit woody/earthy.. Some dark fruits appears - plums/prunes. Medium filling body. Great lasting pleasant finish. Next best maredsous after nr. 10. jonsiii (157), Fredericia, Denmark Sep 7, 2006 Bottle. Dark colour, nice white head. Aroma of fruit (prunes?). Nice standard belgian beer. AlchemistZ (493), Richmond, Virginia, USA Sep 7, 2006 Dark red color, almost brown with a lacing, pale tan head. Aroma has some apple fruit and a touch of chocolate. Pretty boring. Flavor is bracing in its overall acidity. I could see successfully pairing this with some fantastic atrisan cheeses and the acidity wiping the fat away. The apple fruit is there with an encompassing earthiness and some dried, dark fruit in the aftertaste that intensifies as it warms. That prune-like flavor is very interesting. This is also quite hoppy, alot hoppier than I would assume.
