Clear golden with a thick foamy everlasting head. Very nice aroma! Spices, lots of coriander, yeast and even some smoke?! Flavor not as good. Kinda harsh dusty bitterness with notes of alchohol and some fruit. Bitter finish.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
UPDATED: DEC 10, 2009 Hazy yellow with a big white head. Refreshing belgian yeast aroma, with pineapple, lemon and a touchof bubblegum, plus some pine and grain. Pleasant dryish flavour with a lot of juicy, fruity notes, and a touch of warming, vineous alcohol. The finish is quite bitter with distinct continental hops. Great craftsmanship

3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Well out of date bottle from under the stairs. Now I’ve broken my Xmas duck and I’m off to Bruges BELGIAN STASH BEWARE. Big stable irregular head on innocuous-looking orange amber beer. Pip-like black floaties. Campino strawberry and vanilla aroma paired almost exquisitely with oaky, butterscotchy tones and light apricot fruit. Gently buttery and acetic, with honey and Saaz chipping in as it warms. Mouth can’t really match that. Cask, butter and almond present. Bit vacuous and lagery for a 7.2% Belgian Xmas brew. Noble hop nibble of pinecone, honey-sweet pale maltiness. Definite metal. Quite fresh and savoury, but a bit drab beyond the snout. Lean, unfussy, faintly coniferous. OK, but unchristmassy.
