beerfest5 (128), Simsbury, Connecticut, USA Mar 4, 2009 wow, this isnt my fav style, but an amazing beer. i had to try it because of all the hype, and it definitely didnt dissapoint. i drank it over the course of an hour to really enjoy it and what you read is true, one of the best beers ive ever had. tdcritch (112), Missouri, USA Mar 4, 2009 Not my favorite but had to try it because of the good rating. Very dark color, tastes of raisins and plums with a hint of vanilla AlbertC (14), Göteborg, Sweden Mar 4, 2009 Tested with two other belgian ales. Great brown colour with alive yeast on foam and bottom of class. The taste explodes with a round, coffie and fruity taste in perfect balande of each other. Colourful fireworks in your mouth. Extremely pleasant finish with taste of slight bitterness but mostly fullnes with the properties of a belgian ale. The alcohol strength of this beer goes without notice. coyotehunter (542), , Michigan, USA Mar 3, 2009 Gooood shiite. Nice dark brown pour with a good head. Smell is dark fruit and maybe bubblegum. flavor is dark fruit all the way with hints of molasses and toffee and....bubblegum. not sure on that. Im picking up a slight nut/chocolate flavor as well. Alcohol? what alcohol?.....its not even a little bit noticeable. Very well balanced.
Everything seems to come together really well. Bit of a tinge at the end.
Good stuff f351c4v (404), Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 3, 2009 More old memories... Pours a clouded brown color with a quickly dissapating tan head. Sweet, fruity, bready aroma, with a hint of alcohol. Great body, well carbonated, chocolate, caramel, creamy almond smoothness. No alcohol on the palate, easy drinking. A top choice. JKJ (24), Herlev, Denmark Mar 3, 2009 Bottle. dark brown/black color with a thick off white head You wouldn’t even know it was over 11% alcohol unless you looked at the label.
rwaters (27), Anchorage, Alaska, USA Mar 2, 2009 Pours brown with a light tall cream head. Slight alcohol taste with dark fruit and caramel/malt. The aroma matches the flavor very well. gator2683 (133), Anchorage, Alaska, USA Mar 2, 2009 dark brown with big fluffy cream head. strong raisin and dark fruit aroma. flavor is malty with lots of dark fruit and then becomes very dry and slightly bitter. thin mouthfeel and a little alcohol taste
