Bottle at ’T efde Gebod, Antwerp, Belgium, 04-10-06. Dark brown in colour with a tan creamy in texture head. Aroma a bit spicey and malty, taste continued in this vein very full flavoured but with dark fruits and caramel also swishing around. Very good beer.

Aug 19, 2008 Pours burnt caramel with a meringue like fluffy, cream colored head. The nose is ruch and sweet with dried fruits, caramel and brown sugar. The flavor is quite the same with more fruit influence. Clean finish.

Aug 14, 2008 33cl bottle from Belgianshop. It poured a dark amber colour with a huge creamy white head that settled down very slowly in the glass. The aroma smells of dark fruits, roasted malts, caramel and alcohol. The flavour is dry and bitter, almost sour and tastes of alcohol, raisins and plum. It has a short aftertaste.

Aug 13, 2008 Bottle. Clear amber brown beer, thick rocky white head. Aroma of caramel, fruits and malts. Flavour is soft and smooth, soft caramel flavours, roasted malts with a nice balancing bitterness. Very nice.

Aug 12, 2008 A nice one for number 10, though I thought I would notice the alcohol less. So this is Christmas: pudding spice and stewed fruits in the nose, sweet yams and pumpkin pie in the mouth, the color of something very well roasted, a touch of sour in the finish. You know that part of the ham with the pineapple slice on it, how it’s all caramelized and sweet and rich? I think I’ll have another now.
