Aroma of fruit, candis and prune also a sweet malty aroma. The flavor has caramel, malt, fruit and a tint of alcohol.

From bottle : Pours a dark cloudy copper color with a big white head. Very fruity aroma with cider dominate. The body is medium, and feels very crisp on the palate. The flavor is chocolate with fruits, mainly cherry. I think it is quite good and balanced.

Draft @ Cicero’s in St. Louis: Pours a murky copper with a lush ivory head. The aroma is esthery with lots of cidery apple and cherry. Chocolatey malt joins the mix in the body, creating a chocolate covered cherry feel. Overall, the esthers are just too abundant and the complexity of the malt can’t shine through. I would like to try again in a bottle.

Semi-opaque molasses colored. The hearty fullness of this beer rings of caramel, and a sweet, syrupy spicy flavoring.

(Bottle, Alain’s, Duved, Sweden, 21 Aug 2007) Dark brown colour with frothy off-white head. Malty, spicy nose with chocolate and spicy hints of nutmeg and cinnamon. Malty, spicy taste with sweet notes of marzipan, chocolate and spicy notes of nutmeg and cinnamon. Balanced bitterness, some sweetness leaning in the brown sugar direction. Lacking some balance, but still nice.

Dark fruits, citrus, possibly cooked pineapple, caramel, lots of things. Very hazy brownish color with floating bits. The off-white head flattened, but not 100% Medium bodied; near creamy carbonation. Carmel, bread or yeast, varying fruits, pepper, perhaps cacao. The finish is actually rather dry, with some spice, some pepper, perhaps some hop. Always some variable fruit aspects. Eventually some pepper on the top of the tongue seems prominent.

I was fully prepared to review this beer with my pal Andy, but he protested vehemently against it. That Andy, always such a Pater Hater. Appearance: Pours a hazy, dark brown body with a creamy, off-white head. Smell: Fruity aroma of bananas and other various dark fruits. Full of yeast and sweet-smelling dark sugars. Hints of pepper. Taste: Cocoa powder, sweet maltiness, and the fruitiness of bananas and such. More pepper. Plenty of spice and doughy yeastiness evident. Finishes dry and fruity. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Soft effervescence. Drinkability: What’s up with that Ando, huh?

2/2/05. 330 ml. Hazy amber brown with small tan head. A little thin with quick ending. Somewhat sweet with less sharpness than Rochefort 6.
