railcat1 (487), Hammond, Indiana, USA May 16, 2006 Updated: Jun 24, 2006THIS WAS A VERY DIFFERENT BEER FOR ME .IT WAS SWEET AND TANGY WITH FRUIT OVERTONE REMINDED ME OF RABBID RABBIT WITH A LOT OF ALCOHOL.HAD IT IN 2004 AND WISH THEY WOULD BRING IT BACK CHEERS TO THE GUYS BATLMULLET (127), Highland, Indiana, USA Feb 1, 2004 This is very complex. Sweetness and tanginess right up front gives way to subdued fruitiness. Pretty red-orange color with a rapidly diminishing head and carbonation level. Notable alcoholic presence. Great on a cold evening, but appropriate anytime. Quite good. EddieG (162), Palos Heights, Illinois, USA Jan 25, 2004 Really an unusual brew. Not a Dubbel per se, but excellent none the less. While the residual sweetness breaks through to leave the taste of plums and raisins. Then come the hops. Full flavored here in the typical Floyd's fashion yet nicely blended to compliment the overall experience. JoeM500 (1877), Chicago (little italy), Illinois, USA Apr 6, 2003 Surprisingly complex...I bet this was the millionth batch that finally turned out good! Candy Sugar and dark fruits added to a huge alcoholic first sip. I compared it to an Orval that accidently got dry hopped for 90 minutes. I hope this becomes a regular and makes me fear the upcoming Alpha Kong Quadruppel! Terminus (1955), Illinois, USA Mar 24, 2003 WOW! what a cool brew-Nick FLoyd himself brought this keg out to the tap at the brewery in Munster. I am not familiar with the style of brew, but he said it tastes like Duval. Candy aroma, apperance was cloudy beige-palate was sweet sweet sweet-nice subtle hop bite to round it all out-maybe they will try to make this a regular?
