djd07 (724), Houston, Texas, USA Jun 27, 2008 Bottle as shown. Pours a coppepr amber color with a large frothy off white head that lasts. The aroma is a pungent caramel malt, raisin and licorice. Good lacing on the glass. The taste is a sweet caramel and a nice spicy finish that hides the alcohol well. A very good belgian strong ale from Unibroue. OSLO (825), Perth, Australia Jun 26, 2008 [Bottle] Pours dark hazy orange with a decent off-white head. Aroma is bready and sweet; really a lot more yeast heavy than I had expected. Taste is semi-sweet with a lot of yeast again, some malt, and light fruitiness. Medium-thin mouthfeel. A yeast dominant, pretty boring beer. KAF (441), Coralville, Iowa, USA Jun 26, 2008 Very light brown pour with a thin head. Sweet fruity nose with brown sugar and grape fruit. Alcohol in the taste as well as dark fruits and a soda like citrus. Lunkie (1020), Glen Iris, Australia Jun 26, 2008 Sweet malt hop aroma with flowers. Murky light brown colour with good head and lacing. Sweet malt flavour with chocolate. Smooth palate. Very complex flavour. But very drinkable. 12many (231), Ohio, USA Jun 25, 2008 Dark hazy amber pour with a medium head. Aroma of dark fruit, and alcohol. Flavor is sweet with a slight bitterness and some alcohol. Some fizzy carbonation. Nice. Bigmmartin (366), Dayton, Ohio, USA Jun 25, 2008 Bottle thanks to 1 2many.
Pours dark with a nice foamy head. Aroma is dark fruits, raisins, yeast, and slight alcohol. Flavor is dark fruits and sweet malts. Sweet finish. Nice balanced carbonation with a pleasant mouthfeel. Another great Belgian brew from Unibroue. MiP (8793), Sønderborg, Denmark Jun 24, 2008 Bottle at ÅBF08. Sherryish raisin aroma. Clear dark amber colour. Very vinous flavour. Good alcohol level. amishcaravan (237), Winona, Minnesota, USA Jun 3, 2008 quite a tasty brew. Lots of head at first then settles down and provides a very pleasent sitting. scent is of fermented fruit and barley. the alcohol is certainly present and can be felt more than tasted. sweet taste with hints of wine and molasses. some spice as well. This was a very enjoyable beer. I would purchase this again.
