Brown murky pour with two finger beige head. Definite dark fruit and brown sugar aroma. Nice medium body with roast and hop. Wow good.

Bottle courtesy of Fratto. Orange to red pour with lots of sediment. Sweet belgian aroma. Dry sweet fruit that sits lightly. Taste is incredibly smooth. Hints of sweet grapes. Decent finish. Not bad.

Unfiltered dark brown. Nice head with some retention, homogenous small-medium bubbles. Nice. Sweat aroma, complex. Works well all over the tongue, alcohol there, but not prevalent. Aftertaste is a little too grainy, like leftover spices. Thin, watery. Fizzy. Very nice. After taste the only fault.

Pours a very dark reddish brown color with a nice thick cream color head. Aroma of many dry fruits like raisains and plums, cream and brown sugars with roasted malts. Flavors are very rich, creamy with roasted malts and brown sugars. Fruty and spicy, with good carbonations. Dry, sweet and bitter and a warm finish. Lots of great complex flavors, very enjoyable.

Rubyred brown colour, very dense creamy big head. Pours out easy with chunks of yeast in bottle and glass.Aroma is rather molasse-like, sweet. tastes bitter sweet, low carbonation, hints of cacao, roasted malts. Finish average, but nice beer.

Beautiful aroma, rich ripe fruit and some funky smells as well. Do I detect a hint of chocolate? Pours an unclear reddish brown with large chunks of sediment. A wonderful beer, my notes section is very short as I was too busy enjoying this! Perfectly smooth, winelike, world-class.

Bottle. Hazy brown colour with a large tan head. Malty aroma with spicy and fruity notes. The flavour is malt, raisin, liquorice, yeast, some sweetness, pepper and slightly bitter. Very smooth palate. Very tasty and easy to drink.
