3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
This beer is a hazy dark amber color with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily. Small patches of lacing. Aroma of malt, yeast and dark fruit. Full-bodied with flavors of ripe fruit, malt and oak. The finish is syrupy with a banana and oak aftertaste. Decent overall.

Draught @ The Trappist. Golden amber, hazy pour with white head. Sweet. Light vanilla bourbon notes, mix of dark and red fruits, molasses and caramel. Not the typical bourbon inflection I was expecting; much more refreshing. And boozey.

Cerveza cuádruple muy espesa con aroma y sabor a Bourbon. ¿Se puede pedir más? Exquisita
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
Tap at Het Oude Schooltje, Oostvleteren - 20/10/12.
Clear golden with a thin off white head.
Nose comprises caramel, apricot, honey, a little booze, bourbon tones and a touch of mint.
Tastes of sweet caramel malts, caramelised sugar, fruit tones, bourbon back note.
Very very smooth drinking - ’luxurious’ is the correct palate descriptor! Fullish bodied, no carbonation and the alcohol is very well disguised.
Great stuff!

Tap (SBWF2012)
Over-ripe bananas and bourbon in the aroma. The aroma and taste are both super-sweet, so sugary and sticky in the palate. I don’t like over-ripe bananas at the best of times, so this score is being very charitable - this is almost everything I don’t like about beer packed into one beer. Not particularly flawed, just so so so not me.
4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draught at SBWF. Cloudy amber, small head. Rich aroma of vanilla, oak and red berries. Sweet and full bodied with well rounded mouthfeel. Rich on caramel, filled with red berries and sprinkled with vanilla. Warming finish. Seemless and rich. Wonderful!
