Odeed (1488), Bakersfield, California, USA Dec 29, 2004 Updated: Mar 12, 2005 poured just like muddy water into my rochefort glass.gave off little head that stuck around until the last drop.the smell gave off sents of rasins,bubblegum,candy and a little earth.the flavor was an outstanding balance of all the flavors from the aroma,along with malts,belgian yeast,and fruits.this is awsome!!!
re-rate:im am becomming a huge st. b. fan.this time around i noticed when the head evaporated a huge web was left behind.its very smooth,very complex,and wonderful!
re-rate number 2:you really cant get a better looking brew than this.looks stunning right when a 330ml bottle is poured into a trappist glass.
xpimptastikx (21), Austin, Texas, USA Oct 7, 2008 Pours a deep brown with a lingering tan head. Smells of raisins, figs, and caramel. As the temperature rises every sip changes. The closest things to a Westy 12. buzzoven (150), Japan Oct 7, 2008 Glory in a glass. Deep brown dark colour with a speckled tan head. Smell of rum, licorice, coffee, toffee, chocolate mousse. Sipping this is like sucking on angel’s wings...a bounty of desireable tastes just dancing on the tongue; flavours abounding on the palate like some sort of wildflower blooming and bursting. Extremely well balanced and the 10.5% alcohol is felt with a slight burn (aaahhhh) but is very well concealed amongst the rum, oak, malted barley, maple, figs, candied apple, raisins, vanilla, the list goes on and on. I like the jolly parson label as well. Buy or die! Skidds (186), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Oct 6, 2008 Bottle from Pub Italia. Pours a dark brown with a massive and dense off-white head. Aroma mainly of dark fruits (prunes, figs), caramel and some alcohol. The flavour and mouthfeel are creamy with strong notes of brown sugar, dark fruits, caramel, molasses, raisons and chocolate. This is the best beer I have ever had! Try it. branspra (47), Arlington, Virginia, USA Oct 5, 2008 Bottle. Pours with a large head, excellent lacing, and dark brown color. Aromas of molasses, caramel, lime, and plum. Creamy texture with a nearly perfect flavor. Definitely a keeper and will be purchasing this beer again! ironchefscott (243), long beach, California, USA Oct 5, 2008 a damn great beer....such a great nose of plum and dark fruits.....and super soft mouthfeel.....just an outstanding quad!
