MatSciGuy (237), St. Paul, Minnesota, USA Jul 13, 2008 [Bottle] Pours a beautiful, clear amber with a medium off white head. Aroma is sweet and malty, with notes of raisins, fruity yeast, and maybe some spices. Flavor is raisin forward, with the spices coming through a little bit. Nice, light mouthfeel, and the alcohol is barely detectable. Very nice Belgian style brew.
Veer (333), Landskrona, Sweden Oct 10, 2008 Aroma: fruity, wort, dried fruit, malts (heavy), sourish, yeast (coriander, seville orange, liquorice)... Slightly roasted, red currants, sappy hops... pears.
Flavour: powerful, roasted (but not burnt at all), nice chocolate malt, prunes, liquorice. Very mellow.
Palate: wonderful, fizzy, creamy, very smooth... thick.
Appearance: brown, mellow copper w/yellow bizarre, surprisingly nonfrothy head. Ljunkan (143), Karlstad, Sweden Oct 10, 2008 Bottle. Dark amber color with a dissapering head. Aroma is malty, notes of dried fruits, plums, caramel and some american hops. Flavour is sweet, malty, notes of dried fruits, caramel, american hops, citrus. Pretty filling in the mouth and quite drinkable - it’s a very nice sipper. And yes, it reminds me a bit of Dugges Wallonia, though the latter one is a bit better. Worth the price though! Joakgust (90), Stockholm, Sweden Oct 9, 2008 Bottle, 355ml - dark amber colored beer with a disappearing dense beige head. Aroma is malty with hints of caramel, amaretto and American style hops. Also some smokiness hides in the background. Flavor is rather sweet with strong notes of nuts. Lots of other flavors are somewhat evident. Was expecting a little bit more still. Linnet (31), , Sweden Oct 9, 2008 Ruby colour smal creamy beige head. alcohol together with sugar and dark fruits in the nose. flavour is sweet with dark fruits reminds me of Dugges Wallonia but this beer is not as complex as that one although this beer is better value for money. xpimptastikx (24), Austin, Texas, USA Oct 7, 2008 Pours a dark brown with light tan head, good lacing. Dark fruits and caramel dominate the taste. A good beer for the style and pretty cheap.
