mkofron (155), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Jul 28, 2007 One of my favorites that I enjoy regularly. Belgian candi sugar, yeast, raisins, malt, and hints of alcohol. Great beer. Braudog (3732), Dayton, Ohio, USA Jul 18, 2007 Caged and corked. Pitch black with a lightly active tilt around the edge, rising to a bright white ring of foam. Nice rich flavor of licorice, dates, raisins and maybe some dark cherry. Dances around in the mouth and goes down quite easily for a 10.5 ABV brew. Superb. (#3024, 7/15/2007) smhncabot (310), Cabot, Arkansas, USA Jul 16, 2007 pours cloudy dark brown with decent head that fades. aroma is spicy with lots of phenol (bananas and other fruitiness) with some fig and ripe fruit. taste is tart fruity with lots spiciness and a good amount of booze towards finish. theres is good amount of dark fruit and toffee sweetness. good stuff. Ibrew2or3 (2714), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA Jul 14, 2007 2004 750mL purchases at Beer World of Largo that pours deeply amber with one inch tan head. The aroma is fairly strong with crushed black grapes that have been backing in the sun for thirty minutes. There’s also notes of sour sugar candy, figs, raisins and yeast. The flavor is much like the aroma with black grapes, figs and raisins that slide into a bit of tartness about midway. Into the finish more fruity sweetness, yeast and more fruit dominate the palate. Very nice brew with no sense at all of the big ABV. T3llLAllDE (82), USA Jul 12, 2007 this beer is scary im not gonna lie. dark as hell with such a strong taste of alcohol you can barely tell whats going on till your like half way done the bottle and built up some tolerance to it. then it becomes a little sweeter but still out of control. i like to be able to take a nice swig of my beer and be a lttle refreshed you know. but this is like wine to me. larsniclas (3383), Gothenburg, Sweden Jul 9, 2007 Bottled.
Almost black with a small, beige head.
Sourish and yeasty nose. Some wood and alco-feel.
Sweet and frutiy flavour. Pretty sweet with burnt, dark sugar. Furseth (1328), Kungälv, Sweden Jul 8, 2007 Bottle: Black colour,creamy head. Aroma of yeast,fruits,raisins,Dark Chocolate.Flavor almost the same as the aroma.Medium body.Medium finish. ekstedt (2411), Göteborg, Sweden Jul 8, 2007 Opaque dark brown, medium soapy head. Fruity malt aroma, slightly roasted, notes of cherries, yeast, and a clear touch of alcohol. medium bodied and smooth. Good balance, with sweetness, some acidity, and bitterness well integrated.
