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.

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.

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.

An almost copper pour with creamy white head and lace. Aroma of bread, corrinader, and a light hint of caramel. Flavor is light brown sugar, clove, and light yeastiness. Soft carbonation and solid mouthfeel. A very nice beer. At 10% well hidden and pretty damn smooth.

750 mL bottle purchased from Midtown Wine and Spirits in Nashville. Poured a hazy/cloudy amber orange color with a two finger off white head. The aroma was booze, overripe fruit, plums and dates. The flavor was about the same. The overripe fruit, plums and dates were present. The alcohol was well hidden however. The palate was average, with soft carbonation, a chewy mouthfeel and a medium/full body. This was great to try, but I didn’t drink the whole bottle. Way past its prime I’m guessing.

Ruddy caramel orange-brown with a finger of orange tinted tan head. Dry spicy aroma, some sweet caramel. Taste is spritzy, citrus notes, candi sugar, brown sugar, plums, raisins, great stuff.
