From bottle : A deep dark brown pour with a big beautiful white creamy head. The head leaves very nice lacing, so that by the end of the beer you have a wonderful design on the sides of your glass. Nose is complex like with many great belgian style ales. It has Sweet malts, little hint of alcohol, and plenty of dark fruity aromas, i can detect plums, apples, grapes, and more. Palate is thin to medium bodied, creamy and smooth as silk. Taste has some sweet malts and the same array of fruits that was found in the aroma. Alcohol is somewhat present in the taste, but not overbearing or overnoticable, it is hidden farely well. It has very lively carbonation. A excellent Belgian Style Ale.

Oct 11, 2008 A dark brown, opaque beer with a small, short-lived head. I loved the nutty, fruity taste of this one. The carbonation is good. It’s easy on the palate and goes down easy, though the aftertaste will make you jump a bit.

Oct 8, 2008 Pours an extremely dark brown color with a thick light beige head. Dissipates after a few seconds. The nose is dark roasted nuts, brandy, alcohol, plums, and maybe even some chocolate. The first things I notice about this is the rich body. Very creamy mouthfeel. There is some strong dark fruit flavors, a pretty pronounced alcohol flavor, a nice yeast undertone and a good bitter lingering flavor. Well balanced. Couldn’t have too many, but that is probably better with a 9 % ABV.

Oct 7, 2008 Bottle. Very dark brown, almost black with excellent dense head. Pleasant somewhat fruity aroma with hints of marmalade and raisins. Medium body with wonderfull carbonation. Somewhat fruity refreshing foretaste with a rich aftertaste that verges on cloying, almost balanced with some bitterness. A great beer.

Oct 5, 2008 Bottle. Black with a small but thick head. Kind of shy but nice fruity aroma. Wonderfull taste! Sweet like a belgian blonde and elegant like a barley wine. Complex, yet easy to drink. Sweet and choclatey.
