Midnight Sun La Mâitresse du Moine

Black like a stout. Lightly hoppy complex aroma. Rich, lightly sweet flavor filled with dates and licorice. Just superb.

Pours thick, syrupy dark brown. Aroma of slightly burnt figs, cotton candy, some spices and a chocolate yeast. Flavour is full bodied, chocolates, coffee, figs and rock candy come to mind. Truly smoothed bodies and deep. The sweetness kinda over powers the end, but over all, this beer simply rocks! To only experience it on tap would be wonderful!!! Get it if you can, Midnight Sun has a knock out here, our Belgium friends should take notice!!

22 oz. bottle - pours thick and ark brown with chocolate covered head; lots of lacing as the head settles; creamy texure, medium body and drinks very smooth with slight bitterness from the chocolate; aromas of bread and chocolate; flavors are rich with mild fruitiness and toffee flavors; an interesting brew

Very dark brown to black in color this poured a thick light tan head. There were aromas of yeast, raisen, fig, coffee, chocolate, confectioner’s sugar and a little spice. The flavors followed the nose and was full-bodied, concentrated and had a smooth midpalate that faded toward a dry finish. This had just a touch more sweetness then I would prefer but was really very enjoyable.

My bottle (22oz) shared with HogTownHarry & tupalev -- courtesy of kp. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a large frothy light-brown head. Wonderful aroma of earthy yeast, dark fruit, roasted malt, smoke, brown sugar and more, there’s lots going on here. Flavour: Geez Louise that’s tasty! Sweet with caramel malt, brown sugar, dark fruit, spices, yeast, mild hops and alcohol -- quite complex. Alcohol’s pretty well hidden making this dangerously easy to drink. Medium to full bodied. Superb!

Via liquidsolutions. Pours a dark brown with a one finger creamy brown head. The aroma is sweet, some alcohol, ruddy aroma, light Belgian. The flavor shows some alcohol, earthy, meaty, sweet, light Belgian. The palate is full with a soft carbonation. Not terribly impressed with this one.

Nothing like following up Bell’s Batch 8000 with this! Bottle shared with Hogtown Harry and Blankboy, Blankboy’s bottle. Very dark brown, good sized creamy yet foamy tan head. Nice aroma - dark fruit, some fruit sweetness, earthy, roasty, alcohol. Taste is also solid - dark fruit, almost licorice like, sweetness, alcohol, raisin. Nice foamy mouthfeel. Complex, unique, good.

Bomber. Thanks to after4ever! Pours opaque dark brown with a lacy tan head. Creamy medium body and light carbonation. Sweet caramel and plum taste. Soft, round and somewhat earthy finish. A dandy little sipper.
