Sep 26, 2008 750 ML bottle shared with Padrefan at Main Tap. Dark pour with not much head. Aromas of dark fruit, raisin, prune, caramel, and brown sugar. Similar flavors with quite a bit of alcohol on the flavor. Nice beer.

Sep 23, 2008 Odd 12 oz bottle... I’m used to seeing the big ones, so this was a surprise. Pours a red/brwon with a beige head and aromas of raisins, brown sugar, alcohol and a touch of spice. Flavor is a nice mix of the above... seems driven by a brown sugar/toffee malt sweetness and has some dark fruit that adds complexity. I’d say raisins and dates. Mouthfeel is kind of creamy and there is a little bit of warmth as it goes down... Nice.

Sep 23, 2008 Pretty good brew. Bought from Whole Foods Market. Light fruity aroma, off-white/tan head, and pours a rich reddish brown color. The higher alcohol content is well hidden, I didn’t notice the warmth that I noticed on other high gravity beers. The taste disappears quick from the tongue and leaves minimal after taste, not what I expected, but not a bad thing either.

Sep 23, 2008 Very nice strong ale. It has the classic Belgian flavor. Nice burn on the throat as it warms. Very hearty like a meal unto itself.
