Ober (402), Best, Netherlands Apr 2, 2008 An almost clear brown colored beer, with a big beige head. It stays for a long time. A great aroma of chocolate, roasted malt and coffee. A great taste, little sweet with some bitter chocolate. A complex, but well balanced flavour. The chocolate stays in your mouth for a long time. A beautiful great beer. sayravai (3183), Helsinki, Finland Jan 31, 2006 (Bottled) Dark reddish brown with a medium, tanned and foamy head. Nice, malty aroma with strong anise and licorice, plus ginger hints. Sweetish, malty flavor with moderate hopping and anise. Hides the ABV excellently. Medium to full-bodied, slightly syrupy, low-carbonated palate. A very pleasant full and smooth brew. Augustijn55 (82), Izegem, Belgium Oct 24, 2006 (at Bles beerevent) Brown in colour. Small tan head. Nose = sweet and caramel. Taste is roasty, spicy, and sweet. Some caramel hints and dark fruit notes as well. Medium body. Ends with more roasty notes, caramel, dark fruits and spice.

Very tastefull and good aftertaste thebeertourist (1889), Oslo, Norway Sep 29, 2006 Chestnut brown with a big, creamy khaki head. Complex fruity caramel aromas with hints of chocolate and berries. Rich chocolate flavours balanced by berry acidity and the dry spiciness. Good balance. Full-bodied, soft. Very enjoyable.
