lghansen (24), Denmark Aug 24, 2008 Dark brown with a pale tan head. This was an excellent Belgian dark ale. Just the right mix of sweet, malt, and alcohol flavors. It was very foamy, and bubbled out of the bottle after opening. A great alternative to champagne. AmEricanbrew (917), Left Coast, Louisiana, USA Aug 16, 2008 Clear garnet with a fleeting head. Mild aroma is sweet earthy malts with molasses and rootbeer spice. Medium body. Nice earthy, yeasty dubble ale flavors with molasses, rootbeer spice. No hint of the 9% abv.
