3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
33 cl bottle. Pours hazy red with a minimal head. The aroma is fruity, bready, vinuous and warming. It has lots of malts and is really inviting. The taste is full-bodied and long.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Served at Chappy’s Tap House as part of a month long beer event. Served in a 6 ounce mini wine glass. Murky lite brown, hazy, cloudy. Produced a large head which looked like a layer of cream floating on top. Good lacing around the glass. Big Pineapple aroma when first served. Another review mentioned "wet paint", and as the beer warmed, I could definitely pick this up as well. Initially pineapple, but turns into a little tart sour cherry taste. Heavily carbonated, maybe a bit too much. Nice bitter tart finish. Definitely worth having one of these, but I’m not sure I’d want more than one at a sitting.

Bottle pours a murky brownish with a large foamy off white head that left lacing. Aroma of dark fruits, candi sugar, tropical fruits, coconut, spicy Belgian yeast character (lots of it) along with corriander and grains of paradise. Flavor of earthy and spicy Belgian yeast notes, spices as noted in the aroma, dark fruits, candi sugar sweetness, finishes dry and again earthy. Belgian character really coming through and abv pretty well hidden.
3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. It smells a little bit strange, strong aroma of cheese, some sherry or liquor. The medium large beige head is creamy-foamy with a normal duration. The body is clear and red-brown. The taste is a mixture between bitter and sour, reminds me quite strong of a cherry liquor. The body is heavy, oily-creamy with a normal carbonation. A unusual aroma and a unusual taste.
