Very strong, wine-like aroma. Dark amber color. No head. This bottle was given to me almost a year ago, it’s been stored with my wine. Sour (wow) flavor comes at you first. Metallic finish. Not at all what I expected. Mine, however, came from a bottle with a female pig dancing with the male pig on her shirt and says Vapeur Cochonne Ale.
Completely off style for a Belgian Strong.

Aug 19, 2008 Un assaggio dal bicchiere di Nicoletta al Falstaff; ottima impressione, dopo che una bottiglia bevuta mesi fa si era rivelata terribile (andata a male).

Aug 3, 2008 Bottle. Pours copper with a white head. Aroma has spice, fruit, and a bit of sour berry. Medium body. Lightly sweet flavor, with fruits and spices. Ends on a funky sour note. Not bad.

Jul 18, 2008 Pour is a dark red with a large tan head. Aroma at first was a little skunky thanks the the green bottle but things changed quickly. Lots of sour fruit followed with some spice and funk. Flavor is again super sour fruit with a large spice with a heavy breadyness. Finish has some barnyard-horseblanket or whatever you call it funk. This is a very good beer at a decent price and something to look for.

Jun 28, 2008 I thought that this was a pretty good Belgian Strong Ale. I thought that the herbal and spiced elements were good. It poured a dark copper with good head and decent inviting aroma. Decent mouth feel. However there is one flavor among the palette that is a bit offputting. Kept this beer from being very good rather than just pretty good.
