This beer has a fantastic burnt coffee and dark chocolate taste with a long dry finish. Belgians would be proud of this.

Oct 5, 2008 Bottle. Dark brown colour with a small quickly disappearing tan head. Sweet malty flavour with hints of fruits. The flavour is very malty, fruity and a bit sweet. Bitter aftertaste, medium to full-bodied and quite smooth mouthfeel. Very good beer.

Oct 5, 2008 Bottled. Greasy brown pour without much head, mostly clear. Flavor is a burly, spruce-y gum, root beer like in body and flavor, some sap and band-aid. Mellow, very woody aroma, some licorice and tar. Nicely complex in both aroma and flavor. Not one to be drank too cold. A solid effort.

Sep 28, 2008 33 cl bottle. Reddish brown with a small, tan head that quickly vanishes. Moderate to heavy malty notes - bread, burnt caramel and chocolate. Very fruity with aroma of raisins, plum, cherry and cassis, much like a port. Taste is initially sweet and acidic, and finishes off surprisingly quickly on the sour note with the slightest hint of bitterness. LIght-bodied with a soft and very plain mouthfeel.

Sep 27, 2008 Bottle from Bottlescrew Bills, Calgary, AB. An aroma of caramel, oak cask, floral hints and malts. Appearance is a cloudy dark brown colour with a little bit of carbonation and little to no head. Taste is sweet and a hint of bitter alcohol taste. A great strong beer. This could almost pass as a winter beer.
