Brewed by Brasserie de l’Abbaye des Rocs
Style: Belgian Strong Ale

Brown color with thick tan head. Caramel malt, spices, and belgian yeast on the aroma. Similar body with the addition of dark fruits.

deep brown pour with a decent head. sweet aroma of dark fruits and alcohol. flavor was sweet and rich with the alcohol well hidden. very nice.

I bought this to celebrate Monday night( football). Into my tulip it goes, with a creamy inch and a half of foam. It is a beautiful cherrywood amber in color. Clumps of lace cling to my glass. The aroma of this beer is incredibly rich. It is of cinnamon, figs, brown sugar, and rum cake. The taste is no letdown. Raisins and figs combine with ripe cherries upfront. Nutmeg and cinnamon, and banana bread with nuts in it round out the flavors. Soak all of this in dark rum, and you start to get an idea as to what this tastes like. The alcohol is slightly noticeable. The mouthfeel is very thick and bubbly. The drinkability is off the heazy. Get some. Serving type: bottle Reviewed on: 10-05-2005 00:40:11

Pours a lovely color that seems to range from orangey red browns to purpley red browns. Creamy grey tan head that lingers well and has some nicely long lasting lacing. nose is a nice combination of roasty bread crust, caramally sweetness, with notes of raisins, prune, and othered dried fruits. Dark fruits make a substantial contribution to the flavor profile pairing well with the bready yeasty characteristics. Slight metallic notes are acceptable in the profile as well as some spicey flavors, and just enough biotterness to really round it out. Finish lingers quite a while, with some very pleasant roasty bready characteristics followed by some almost tart berry notes. Body is somewhat fluffy and creamy with a perfectly soft carbonation. If it werent for the two inches of yeast at the bottom of the 750, this would be a nearly perfect beer.
