Dark colored beer with little head retention. Sweet caramel malt and yeast aroma and taste. Not much alcohol initially but really comes out as this warms. Very thin body with a slightly dry finish.

Bottled. Pours a slightly hazy brown with reddish hints and a medium sized soda like beige head. Alka selzeresque carbonation. The aroma is yeast, fruity, sweet malt, and spices. The flavor exhibits semi sweet malt, yeast, mild fruits (not as much as the nose would indicate). The finish is dry. Solid but not spectacular, or even above average.

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.

I let this one settle for a week before I poured it. A nice clean amber colour very nice head and aroma. Looks pretty in is glass. Maybe it should stay there. It realy likes to fizz up in the mouth. Has a burnt taste to it which doesn’t appeal much to me however I wouldn’t pass it up. I’m finding the Maredsous beers sample nicely to Herb Alpert and Sergio Mendes. Which distracts you from the slight inferiorities that the Maredsous beers have from other beers I have had.

Amber coloured with a big head. Weak aroma. Dry alcoholic taste with a hint of lime (CaO).

Wow. Excellent color and head, great fruity and slightly toasted aroma. Caramel, bread, and fruits is what this tasted of. I’m craving another one.
