| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 22, 2009 750 ml bottle...pours cloudy cola brown with a thick tan head. Aromas of dark fruits (raisins, and black cherries), candied sugar, vanilla, caramel, and some slightly funky yeast. The flavor was sweet without being obtrusive, with the vanilla and dark fruits prevailing. The palate was moderately carbonated, medium bodied, and finished hot with alcohol. A very complex sipper...

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 21, 2009 In the bottle at the 2009 Crescent Moon Extreme Beerfest.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 20, 2009 Great Unibroue beer. Typical sort of mouthfeel, which you come to expect when drinking Unibroue products. Maybe the most attractive of their beers in terms of coloration - a nice deep ruby color. Lacks a strong aroma, which seems strange to me. Flavor is largely sweet fruits, though the aftertaste balances it a bit by being slightly more bitter. Alcohol is noticeable, and not as well integrated as I would have expected. thehoff (569), Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA

Dark fruits, and yet hints of chocolate malts. Somewhat strong but not to the point of being undrinkable. Great effort. ruggedman (619), Portland, Maine, USA
