Good beer. Sweet but not off balance. Pours a nice rusty brown. Very easy to drink. That’s what keeps me coming back to Unibroue. You don’t have to think about their beers to appreciate them. They make feel like I’m down at the pub. Good job guys.

JaBier (2999) - Capital City, Ohio, USA - APR 19, 2009
Sample at the Unibroue tasting at Blacklick Wine and Spirits on 4.10.09. Cloudy amber color with a big off-white head. Aroma of yeast, funk and metal. Sweet yeast flavor with a sugary and boozy finish. 15 was much better.

Moggman (235) - Columbus, USA - APR 15, 2009
Bottle in 2009. Pours light brown with white head. Aroma is sweet and spicy with notes of belgian yeast. Flavor is sweet with spicy and dark fruit notes. This one has aged well.

Avengedpoet (326) - Mesa, Arizona, USA - MAR 8, 2009
Pours a golden brown with a voluminous white head. Aroma of lots of belgiancandi sugars and that trademark unibroue funky belgian yeast. Taste is quite sweet, with lots of sugar, malt, and spice complexity featuring nutmeg, cinnamon, dark candi, and an array of crystal-kilned malts. Quite quaffable and good. I think this is by far my favorite Unibroue that I’ve had in quite a long time. This was a nice surprise.

Suttree (3765) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - MAR 8, 2009
Reddish orange, big foamy white head. Bready, fruity aroma. Very malty to start. Sweet and mildly tart flavor meld nicely. Crisp and citrusy, with a surprisingly bitter finish.

hayduke (2445) - Eureka, California, USA - FEB 23, 2009
From the usual C&C bottle you assoiciate with Unibroue this poured a very muddy brown with a very foamy tan head that left decent lacing. Nose was of ripe fruit, , mostly raisins and figs. Rich and creamy mouthfeel. Flavor is the same ripe fruit and there is a distinct bitter finish. Very interesting and tasty beer.

HonkeyBra (2217) - Lemont, Illinois, USA - FEB 19, 2009
Found at Binny’s in Willowbrook. Amber pour with a big, thick white head. Bready, yeasty aroma with fruits, spices, some clove. Very tasty, lots of fruit and spice. Nice carbonation, and the 10% doesn’t show through much at all.

Rusty (1509) - Mesa, Arizona, USA - FEB 15, 2009
Bottle courtesy of BeerAndBlues Pours a lighter caramel color with a creamy off white head. Aroma of bready malts, caramel, spices, fruits. Flavor is bread, caramel, malt, spices, belgian yeasts, cloves, candi sugar, rasins. Nice mouthfeel and lots of carbonation. Good stuff.
