Pours a dark amber color. Smells of sweet brown sugar, sweet pears, apples, figs, and a pinch of honey. Tastes of sweet sugar with a slight bitter finish. Could have been colder. Oops

Very pleasant, strong fruity aroma. Big frothy tan and nice brown, cloudy color. Light carbonation and good weight on the palate. And the taste ... Excellent. I’m a fan a beers with a strong flavor and a lot of body like this beer has.

Poured into a McDonald’s super sized cup and drank through a silly straw.
Billowy head with an amber hue. Aroma is subtle and complex with a hint of anise. This ale starts out sweet and finishes dry with great balance. The palate is quite nice being full-bodied and creamy with an unctuous texture that dissipates into a somewhat astringent after taste. Truly a great ale from the Leather Stocking Region of New York state.

Ommegang
Abbey Ale
Pours orange/brown with a thick cream colored head. Lots of retention. Aroma is sharp fruity cloves with yeast and some alcohol. Light raisins on the nose. Flavor is malty stone fruits with a slight pleasing funk. Not much alcohol. Nice brew with some mild hop bitterness on the finish.

Pours ruby red with a cascading pillowlike foamy head. Aroma is fruit, yeast, spice and a hint of alcohol. Taste is more of the same with a little bit of a dry snappy finish. No Chimay, but a quality brew.
