Whole Foods, Baton Rouge, La. 750 ml bottle. Pours a dark copper with a pillowy, soft, khaki colored head with sticky lacing. Sweet candy-like aroma with hints of Christmas spices and candied apples. Flavor is sweet as well, some caramel, cotton candy, root beer and finishes with a bit of baked brown bread. Alcohol is noticed - feels a bit higher than 8.5%. Mouthfeel, not as thick as expected. All around decent. but expected just a bit more.

(750 ml Bottle) Brown, chocolate crud stuck to the inside of the cap, is it still good? We'll soon find out... Pours a medium, white and a cloudy brown-copper body. Head dissipates to a thin lacing. Earthy aroma with hints of alcohol and spice. Strong malt and caramel flavour with a dry and fizzy-bitter finish. Good but I'd prefer having another La Chouffe to this.

This reddish brown ale poured with a lacy tan head, eliciting a malty aroma. The flavor is spicy toasted malt with a slightly smoky finish and a heavily carbonated mouthfeel. The taste mellows as the beer warms, resulting in a very satisfying drink.
