12 oz. bottle. Bought the sampler pack to see if I could work any Ommegang onto my beer menu... Definitely a lot more "beer" than my regulars can handle. Dark amber pour. Moderate head. Great flavor profile. Not your everyday happy hour beer. More like a nice sit down dinner with good friends kind of beer.

Really impressive. A wonderful mixture of Belgian ingredients and American brewing. It has a slight, fruity aroma and a beautiful, dark burgundy color that sparkles deep marron when held to the light. Thick, fluffy head that leaves a good film. Flavor is malty and fruity, almost whiskey-like. The palate is crisp and clean with overtones of the malt.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a hazy dark brown with a nice foamy, long lasting head. Aroma of caramel, dark fruit and some florals. Tastes rich, with dark fruit, sweet malt, chocolate and a bit of alcohol. Excellent.

Bottle - poured a clear reddish brown with a nice, lasting head and substancial lacing. Aromas of dark fruit, molasses and faint floral scents. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of spices, molasses, and some fruitiness with a smooth, lingering sweet finish. Very nice - just bought another bottle to share with my dad since he enjoyed this one so much a while back and I am trying to keep him away from the bud light!

Tried it on tap and bottled, excellant either way, but better draft. Sweetish with hints of coffee and alcohol.

75cl cork/cage trade while eating homemade Liege waffles. Probably about 1.5-2 years old. Pours a murky brown like you would expect with a small tan head and no lacing. Sweet(er) aroma of dark fruit, sugar and caramel malt. Flavor was true-to-form but a little hot in the finish.
