Formerly brewed at Unibroue (Sapporo)
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Chambly, Canada

hazy reddish orange with a nice light brown head that leaves webbing as it sits.aromas of green apple,cinnamon,white pepper,hay,and yeast.flavor is a blend of the aroma,with some bananas,lemons,and allspice as well.very nice,although pretty typical for unibroue.

Pours out a nice merky brown color with a huge beige head. Aroma is yeasty and very sweet. Flavor was very much the same. Probably a little too sweet. This is easily the sweetest BS that i have every had and that took away a bit formt he flavor score.

750ml brown bottle, corked. Hazy honey gold colour. Head is creamy, dense, some good lacing left behind. Aroma is sweet and fruity. Flavour is sweet, honey malts, some yeast spiciness. Some lingering Uni house yeast dries out the finish. Medium to high carbonation, medium body. No sign of that 10% alcohol, quite tasty, though somehow familiar.

750 mL bottle purchased at Holiday Wine Cellar. This Belgian ale pours as a firm golden color with slight reddish tint. Creates a thick layer of foamy head that will stick around. The aroma is a undeniable Unibroue yeast and spicing that they always achieve. The flavor is a strong delivery of yeast and spice with a light spearmint gum flavor in the background. There is also a small hint of dry fruit such as raisins or mango slices if you can imagine that. Very potent stuff.

Classic Belgian ale taste. Just the right caramel. Light. I love Unibroue’s stuff.

Apricot amber color...lingering creamy head. Aroma of biscuits, bread and amber malt. Rich, sweet, creamy body and flavors of amber malts and subtle tropical notes...some lovely yeast esters as usual with Unibrou. Some spices, bubble gum, powder sugar, white pepper, bitter tropical fruit, alcohol, ginger. Should age nicely.

Pours to a glowing dark amber body with a thin fizzy white head. The aroma is muddled mandarin oranges, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves. Nicely blended. The flavor is spice muddled oranges. Cinnamon, mace, orange rind, nutmeg, pepper, and earthy yeasty malts. The palate hides the 10% alcohol extremely well. Sweet, medium bodied, and carbonated.

Bottled (thanks omhper!). Amber colour, small slightly off-white head. Aroma is spices, caramel malts, sugary and mild alcohol. Flavour is rather sweet sugar, some mild spices, and yeast and some nectar. Rather sweet, but also shows a more wooden side that probably has come with aging this beauty.
