I don’t have a whole lot of experience with belgians, and perhaps they are not my favorite. But, I was able to appreciate this for what it was. Taste of yeasts, dark fruits. Very carbonated, easy to drink. Sweet.

Sep 6, 2008 Bottle. Poured dark brown color in color with thick head. Aroma was earthy, malts, and a bit of fruits. Taste was mostly the same along with a touch of alcohol. My first Abt 12.

Sep 6, 2008 Bottle. Poured into a trappist glass. Poured a dark brown color with a huge brown head that persists. Aroma was sweet malt, dark fruits and alcohol. Flavor was mainly dark fruits with a little warming alcohol on the end. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Great beer.

Sep 5, 2008 Pours a deep plum color from the bomber with gorgeous lacing and an obscene brown head. Absurdly cavernous in it’s aroma and flavor, not to mention the SEDIMENT, which makes this brew look like a robin’s egg when held to the light. A beer to behold.

Sep 4, 2008 Pours opaque chocolate brown with a beige foamy head that persists. Nose is very mild, but I detect malt and faint ethanol. You can taste the hops; it’s the perfect amount of bitter. Finishes with a slight alcohol tingle that is promptly quenched by the next sip. It is easy to see why this beer is highly rated.

Sep 3, 2008 Bottle. Pours a nice walnut brown with a thin tan head that has no staying power. Smell is earthy, dates, rasins, sweet malts, and hints of wood. Taste is very mellow, sweet yet not overpowering with all the things that you can smell playing nicely in the taste. Mouthfeel is soft and enjoyable with light carbonation and a slight alcohol burn.
