Jul 6, 2008 750 bottle. Very nice dark reddish/brown color. Smelled kind of metalic on first smell, then turned to sweet malty.Slightly acidic but not too bad. Was expecting more, kind of let down.

does not count  Jul 6, 2008 Great intro to the Belgium family of beers. Very interesting aroma and creamy flavor with a hint of licorice. So far one of the best beers I’ve ever had!

does not count Jul 5, 2008 Usually when I pay $10 per bottle for a beer, I expect to be let down. This beer was great though. They did a great job hiding the alcohol taste. Head that wouldn’t quit, and flavor that you’d sell your soul for. Definitely one of the best beers I’ve had.

Jul 3, 2008 Pours a dark cloudy brown with a thick, frothy eggshell colored head. The nose is complex and alluring, caramel malt, belgian yeast, and dark fruits in the aroma, with a touch of spice and candi sugar. The flavor of this beer is amazing. Nuts, honey, cloves, cinnamon and other spices, fruit and belgian yeast. The mouthfeel is dense and creamy, the finish is well-balanced with both the sweet malts and candi sugar shining through. Hides the alcohol very well. Overall, a pleasure to drink, one of the best beers I’ve ever had.

Jul 2, 2008 Bottle. Cloudy dark amber. Aroma of malt, yeast, candy and sweet fruit. Tastes of sweet fruit, cherries and almond. Slight dry finish makes it well balanced. Very nice and easy to find.

Jun 30, 2008 On tap at Redlight and poured in a snifter. Deep amber pour with a thin white head. Big malty sweet, orange candy sugar aroma. Nice medium body. Malty sweet, candy sugar and a nice spiciness that make this such a beautifully tasting beer. Finishes very clean and hides its strength very well. This beer just blends everything together so well and is a real joy to drink.

Jun 28, 2008 750 ml bottle-Pours a hazy brown body with a huge head and a cork that popped out of the bottle and started overflowing. Aroma of belgian yeast, candy, and sweetness. Taste of belgian yeast, malt, caramel, sweetness, and some fruits. This full bodied brew is really smooth and drinkable. Nice job.
