Reddish brown with a quickly disappearing beige head. Some caramel aroma but not sweet. Spicy toasted malt flavor with a dry, slightly sour finish. Nice light carbonation.

Bottle @ Victory Bar... Poured a hazy ruby-brownish with a thick, beige head. Spiced, toasted malt aroma. Light carbonation and a thin base to the palate. Creamy yeast and malt notes. Very spiced and sweet bread-like notes with a smoked almond character in the finish.

This reddish brown ale poured with a huge beige head that bubbled away in short order.There is a fruity aroma and a nut and spice flavor with some banana ester. There is a long dry peppery finish.

12oz bottle. $3.95 First off, I have to say that I am becoming a big fan of St Bernardus. One of my highest ratings so far has been given to their Apt 12. With this one I was not really expecting anything great based on the other reviews and the style but I was pleasantly surprised. I really like this. It has a nice creamy head that, like many other belgians, seems to be alive. Pours a nice brown color. Unlike many of the other belgians I have tried this one does not hit you over the head with alcohol taste making it very drinkable. Subtle flavorings of spice and fruit. Can’t wait to taste the other St Bernardus to see if this trend continues.
