Yves (1553) - Turnhout, BELGIUM - AUG 29, 2010
Brown coloured beer with large rocky and creamy off-white head and lots of carbonation. Nice hoppy malty aroma. Full sparkling palate bit sweet. Finish is malty ending rather sweet and dry with a sticky touch.

RomanW70 (297) - Providence, Rhode Island, USA - FEB 1, 2008
Pours very dark amber. Thick, consistent, one finger head. Aroma of chocolate, toffee, clove, and raisins. Fairly well balanced with med/high carbonation and a bitter finish. An excellent dark ale.

Ober (2125) - Bommelerwaard, NETHERLANDS - SEP 10, 2008
A little hazy brown colored beer, with a huge beige head. The aroma of caramel, chocolade malt and fruits. The taste of chocolade, toffee, dark fruits, like raisins some sweets. The aftertaste is smooth bitter and warm. A very nice beer, in the vain of Chouffe.

Mc Chouffe is a deep brown amber color with a very nicely pronounced tan head. The aroma is full of fruit with a nice malted base. The flavor has a great malty base with notes of fruit and caramel. The finish is also very nice.

Draft. Slighly hazy red/brown pour with a bubbly off-white head. Didn’t get a huge head from my pour. Malty goodness on the nose, but with Belgian sugar (candied fruits) as well. Toffee and caramel, and some nice yeast. Similar to a dubbel but yeastier. A very, very easy-drinking Belgian.

donfardz64 (538) - Wellington, New Zealand, NEW ZEALAND - JUL 11, 2009
Pours quite a dark, cloudy brown with a red tinge. Tan head.
Aroma has a lot of caramel, there’s a little alcohol there with a hint of dark fruit there.
It tastes full of dark fruit and spices, can taste some yeast too. Initially sweet, then balanced nicely by a complex herbaceous flavour. A perhaps oft underrated, amazing beer.

Scotch ales, love em, indeed I do! Nice brown pour wtih a wonderful tan colored head. Toffee, syrup, malt, caramel, vanilla on the nose and the tongue. Sweet, but not cloying at all. Delicous. I think I need to go get one soon!
