gunsho (134), Louisville, Kentucky, USA Feb 10, 2008 i really like this belgian strong dark. nice rusted orange color with a generous head. airy mouthfeel that is delicately robust. good notes of nuts and molasses.
on tap at the map room, chicago, il. SudsMcDuff (1691), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston, Texas, USA Feb 10, 2008 $7 bucks, no way!! ..smell of faint dryed fruits and chocolate ... as it warms the flavour does improve .. dark prune brown colour ..nice on the tongue but aftertaste is 50-50 ... very odd flavour, good if you really try but is not very enjoyable.. this beer is a janky hoopty!! Frauditor (148), Hagerstown, Maryland, USA Feb 9, 2008 4 pack from wooden keg. I had high expectations for this beer - Belgian Strongs being my bread and butter. Pours medium brown with a think foamy tan head, which disappears within a moderate amount of time. Mouthfeel was thinner than I prefer and it felt as though it wre falling to either side of my tongue. There’s a strange aftertaste that i can’t quite put my finger on yet but i have 3 more bottles to figure it out. not a bad beer probably won’t buy again after the 4pack but decent. RunDWP (203), San Jose, California, USA Feb 7, 2008 Lovely. Pours with a nice dark orange color, sturdy light brown head. Low carbination. Slightly fruity, buttery flavor almost like bananas. Swet malty flavors. Has almost creamy consistancy. Tasted as good from the bottle as I remember on tap. TikiE (360), Sylva, North Carolina, USA Feb 7, 2008 Finally got to try this guy, thanks Zane for giving me the idea! Amazing beer with a nice burgandy color and a nice frosty head. Doest have that much of a smell, Im kind of stuffed up so I cant really smell, but you can really taste the alcohol but its a nice belgium beer! Collint (452), Sylva, North Carolina, USA Feb 7, 2008 Pretty big bottle, thanks for this very special beer TikiE. Poures a frothy head. Aroma of sweet fruit. Carbonation is clear. It was very good Belgian. thill25 (216), Orlando, Florida, USA Feb 4, 2008 750 ML Bottle...Pours a brown w/ a garnet tint. Slight tannish head that quickly melts away...Nose of yeast and dark fruits. Flavor of dark fruits (raisins and figs), malt, some alcohol and a slight bitterness. The mouthfeel is a little light...Overall, a great sipper. beachbum25 (778), Powellville, Maryland, USA Jan 31, 2008 750 ML Bottle-Dark reddish brown color w/almost no head. Aroma of burnt molasis. Has a bitter, nutty flavor w/traces of burnt peat & firewood. Wasn’t real crazy @ this one, had a kind of stale flavor to it. Didn’t get that classic fresh, Belgian flavor. Average @ best, I wouldn’t recomend it.
