3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a hazy reddish brown with an off-white head. The nose is full of spice, sugar, cloves, and alcohol. Bubbly in the mouth and warming down the throat, the taste is a blend of banana, spices, alcohol, and cinnamon. Pretty nice to relax once or twice with a bottle in a lifetime, but that is probably about it.

Sampled from a 750ml bottle. Honet gold hued. Off-white head. Floral perfumy nose. Slightly earthy with a biscuit touch. Mild and smooth. Nice burn. So easy! Great edition. Honey smooth with mild effervescence. Fruity. Good. Leaves a bitter almost acidic finish. Coating brew.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours with an amber body with orange accents topped by a thick head with some lacing left behind. It’s slightly sour with an underlying sweetness, some malt notes, a hint of banana and lots of clovy, yeasty notes. Medium bodied, smooth and a bit dry.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours opaque copper orange, with a yellow hue, and a large light tan head. Strong fruity aroma with hints of caramelized banana and some tropical notes, alcohol is slightly noted under some sweet.candy sugar, and some spicy yeast. Caramelized bananas hit the palate immediately, followed a brief slight fruity tartness, some brown sugar, a bit of hop bitterness in there, nice big spicy yeast in the finish, and a warming note of alcohol. Palate is medium, effervescent, spicy, and a bit sticky. Definitely Unibroue, delicious, and worth a try.

750 mL bottle purchased from BevMo in Natomas, CA. Yeasty aroma with some banana notes. Dry, dusty, earthy, dirt-like aroma with some hints of leather, too. Ethanol is present retronasally. An odd aroma. Mildly hazy ruddy-orange amber body with a large frothy khaki-colored head. Dissipates relatively quickly. Fruity, tart, lightly sweet flavors to start. Mild roasty banana notes follow in the middle. Fruity, estery, lightly-hopped finish. Ethanol is hidden quite well for being such a big beer. This is rather different, but it is ok.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
750ml bottle Medium amber in color good lacing on the glass. Very nice aroma! This one is slightly sweet and somewhat fruity. A bit more carbonation then I would like but pretty tasty.

UPDATED: JUN 19, 2007 Picked up a bottle @ Roger Wilco in Pennsauken, NJ for about nine bucks. Sweet fruit aroma, deep copper body, and pillow head. This could be the smoothest 10% ABV ale I’ve had yet. Went well with tomato and mozzarella salad. I’m going to pick-up another bottle of Unibroue 16 and cellar it.
