Dec 10, 2005 Dark orange-brown beer, slightly cloudy with a huge off-white head. I noted yeast and malt in the aroma. Plenty of alcohol in the taste. Lots of caramel sweetness and gentle orange marmalade bitterness.

Dec 1, 2005 Deep red-brown body, medium creamy, clumping light tan head. Heavy toffee, candied fruits, spice, breads, and caramel dominate the aroma. Yeast esters in abundance. Heavy esters in the flavor, toasty, and sweet with dark fruits, carameled breads, and hints of red wine. Both sweet and dry. Alcohol warms the palate a bit. Long, smooth, relatively soft yet slightly bitter finish. Tasty, but not one of the best.

Dec 1, 2005 Turbid brown pour with 2-finger off-white, "snow blanket" head. The aroma was of dark fruit, malt, brown sugar, and some cabernet and funk notes. Tastes malty, with some brown sugary and fruity notes and spices. This one is very Rocheforty, with a complex, well balanced palate.

Nov 27, 2005 Red-brown colour with a big, lacing beige head. Aroma is full of caramel and liquorice as well as yeasty spiciness. Caramel, liquorice and bready flavours are balanced by good bitterness, and the initial sweetness develops towards a dry finish. Medium to full bodied, well carbonated.
