Bottled. Amazing!!! Cloudy Amber COlor with a huge and fluffy beige persistent head; Complex sweety and fruity aroma notes of honey and alcohol, the same for the flavor. But with a medium carbonation, right on point! Mouthfeel is spicy with strong notes of alcohol is percepted.

Português: Maravilhosa!!! Cerveja de cor âmbar turva com uma espuma enorme, bege e persistente. Aroma doce e frutado, muito complexo com notas de mel e álcool, o mesmo para o sabor, mas com uma carbonatação média, na medida certa. Retrogosto picante com notas de álcool bem perceptíveis.

750ml bottle at cellar temperature. Foamy pour resolves into smoky cinnabar liquid and towering, dirty snowball head… the barmy afterfuzz yields gravity-defying lace horizons befitting cheesy sci-fi paperback cover art. Aroma abounds with leafy, floral caress; the yeasty-salty musk of a drunk Rubenesque chick’s cleavage. Simple tastes of sugarplum and caramel, hot summer beach and lavender. Heady acetone aftertaste. Typical Unibroue mouthfeel: syrupy/fizzy, and finishing relatively clean and fruity. Although alcohol-forward, one of this Canadian brewer’s blander, less inspiring products.

Cloudy amber appearance with a large beige head and nice lacng. Yeasty aroma paired up with sweet malts and ripe fruit. Multilayered taste; brown sugar sweetness, subtle spicyness and dark fruit. Sweetness lingers through to the long lasting finish.

Had this beer on 8/20/2007. Aroma is a sweet roasted malt scent. Color is a hazy orange/brown with good carbonation and tight tan head. Taste is rich and slightly sour. Starting with a full body it goes down rich with a smooth foamy feel. Finish comes in with bold malt flavor that rolls into a true Belgian yeast taste then a nice sour taste. On the end is a good bitter bite chased down by a warm alcohol feel. This is an intense and well balanced beer. The only down fall is the alcohol is very noticeable on the end.

750ml. A huge head settling into my glass. Nice belgian aroma of honey and yeast. I like this more than the unibroue terrible that I had 2 nights ago. This is a good strong Belgian style and worth enjoying.

750 ml. Clear copper with a medium-sized head that lasts. Sourdough and spicy honey aroma. Flavor is malty: whole grain bread baked with lots of earthy spices, brown sugar, and drizzled with honey. Spicy bubblegum-alcohol aftertaste has some slight herby tastes. Palate is more medium than light-bodied, and airy. Nice dessert beer, with well-hidden alcohol.

Hazy amber of color with a beige/beige head. An aroma of oak, spice, fruits, sweets and alcohol. A flavor of fruit, spice, sweets, wood and a dry finish.

Cloudy brown body with spritzy head. Aroma is warm with sugar and fruit. Flavor is slightly bitter with some fruity sweetness coming around the edges.
