Aug 24, 2006 Smells like artificial banana but in a good way. Taste is smooth but with quite a bit of banana in the flavor as well. Certainly wouldn’t know it was 8%.

Aug 8, 2006 11.2 oz bottle - Pours dark brown with a moderate head. The pleasing aroma is of sugar, yeast, and dark fruits. Dark fruit and malts come to the fore in the flavor. It’s rather smooth with a touch of roast. The body is moderately full and the finish on the dry side. It’s just plain good.

Aug 5, 2006 2004 bottle aged for 2 years. Very strong alcohol aroma but very sweet as well. Got hint of red grapes and malt. No noticable head, red appearance. Flavor is potent and only sippable. Strong taste of malt. Would make a great dessert beer.

Jul 29, 2006 Dark brown with an off-white head. Some floaties. Malty and rummy aroma. Dark fruit, malt, caramel and rum flavor. Alcohol was evident. Not my favorite trappist, but pretty good.

Jul 17, 2006 33 cL bottle. Pours hazy brown-red with large, creamy, off-white head. The aroma is slightly offputting; way more hay than I was expecting. But there are some redeeming spicy scents and a faint maltiness as well. It has a very sharp mouthfeel. The flavor is a bit rough around the edges, almost tannic bitterness. The alcohol is not too well hidden, either. Flavors of caramel and mild sourness come through, with a chalky, roasty finish. Not really what I was expecting.... not awful, but I have come to expect higher quality from the Trappists.
