Braudog (3463), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Jun 28, 2007 300ml bottle, exploded when I opened it, then poured a muddy, ruddy, dirty, opaque midnight red, lightly active with just a bare top. Gargantuan aroma of cooked sugar. Thick and viscuous this is not exactly a pounder or summer beer ... wow, big and flavorful, this is packed with sweet, moltenness ... molasses, pure malt extract, butter. Brutal and only for the brutal beer lovers. (#2994, 6/28/2007)
Tripplebrew (285), Saint Paul, Minnesota, USA Oct 5, 2008 Pours a hazy amber with tan head. Aroma is heavy sweet nuts and fruit. Flavor is candied sugar and malts. Very sweet. Body is creamy and carbonation is fair. MuttyD (87), Cambridge, USA Sep 22, 2008 Amber/brown pour, huge white head, and huge amounts of lacing. Aroma is of apples, candied sugar, yeast. Flavor is of a typical Belgian Strong Ale - dark fruits, candied sugar, bread/cookie, and almost no bitterness. Great brew. mjg74 (1798), La Mesa, California, USA Sep 17, 2008 Bottle from Whole Foods. Hazy dark brownish in color. Sweet candied dark fruit aroma. Some banana in the nose as well. Sweet flavors. Some roastiness and spices. Dark fruits and yeast. Alcohol is well hidden. MrChopin (200), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 14, 2008 Updated: Sep 16, 2008Ruby-Mahogany with a large, yellowish, foamy head. Yeast sediment throughout the beer. Nose is quite a blend: very sweet with yeast, fruity jelly, caramel, some spice (possibly a little pepper). Sweet, fruity flavor, malts and yeast the dominant forces. Palate is a little foamy and too carbonated, but long lasting. A nice beer, perhaps best for desert. Furseth (1162), Kungälv, Sweden Sep 1, 2008 Bottle: Hazy red colour, with a nice head. Aroma of sournes,citrus ,fruity,some yesatynes too. Flavor is fruity mouth feeling, nice medium body,medium fruity/citric finish.
