can8ianben (641), Pasadena, California, USA Jan 21, 2006 Great. THis has tons of flavour, body, mouthfeel, just really complex things that don’t happen in normal beer.
It has nice balence between the malt and the hops, its smooth, but has a nice lingering bitterness, it also has a rich complexity that isn’t available in most beers.
keepersj12 (423), Sicklerville, New Jersey, USA Oct 2, 2008 Every beer from this brewer is top notch. This one is no different. Beautiful dark ruby red. Nice head persists. Very complex flavor with a lot going on. Very nice after taste. Bring me more. Rune (1804), Tromsø, Norway Oct 2, 2008 Shining mahogany body with a white ring around the rim of the glass. Moderate aroma of orange shells. Rich and exciting flavours of grapes, sweet berries, prunes and brown sugar ending up with a suitable bitter touch, added a little alcohol tingle. Soft carbonation. Worth repeating in larges quantum than the 100ml taster I had on EBF (Copenhagen, 14.09.2008). bellmyer (11), EAST MOLINE, Illinois, USA Sep 28, 2008 Pours a deep deep red. Basically black. Aroma disappoints. Really not a very strong nose. Smells of chocolate, deep molasses. Head starts alright, quickly receds into a ring. Flavor is rich. Lots of different things going on. Mouthfeel is like wine, very present and lasting. Quick burst of warming alcohol. Great brew, needs more smell though. mjfleming23 (21), Orlando, Florida, USA Sep 25, 2008 Had this as part of a Unibroue tasting dinner. Poured a deep black/brown color with a thick, robust head. Roasted, fruit, and chocolate tones. Reminds me of the Chambly Noire, but with more body and a more complex palate. piscator34 (935), Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Sep 17, 2008 Dark brown in colour with spritzy carbonation. Aromas of figs, caramel, prunes, and a bit of booze. Loads of complexity on the palate, with elements of stewed fruit, more caramel, chocolate, berries, licorice, red berries, citrus peel, and allspice. It’s medium weight body makes it surprisingly drinkable. Well done.
