Apr 30, 2007 I shared my 2003 bottle with a tasting of Minnesota raters in early 2007. Garnet/brown, hazy, low carbonation. Well-rounded flavor, raisin, caramel, mellow, grape, subdued alcohol. Not super thick. A good and very drinkable blend of elements, being both Belgian and American in character.

Apr 26, 2007 I must’ve gotten an off bottle. Very minimal carbonation with a pungent alcohol brown sugar/candied nose and the flavor...wow! Thick, syrupy heavy duty sweet gut bomb. I could see this one ruling otherwise...

Apr 18, 2007 This beer pours a nice dark amber color with no head at all. It has a nice aroma of chocolate and berrys and it is really sweet. When you drink it every thing bombards your mouth at once the chocolate,berrys and malt and hops. But after a few sips they equal out and all you taste is sweet malt and chocolate and berrys. There is also that mild bitter sweet taste that sticks around on the palate for a while.

Apr 18, 2007 Pours an ultra-cloudy, heavy particulate-filled almond colour. The particles are huge, a settle to the bottom of the glass quickly. Smells like thanksgiving in a glass, with marshmallow covered sweet potato and chocolate truffles filled with fruit. Like candy. The characteristic The taste is smokey and fruity, with a good amount of alcohol coming through. The palate is crisp, with medium carbonation, and warming.

Apr 18, 2007 Poured into snifter for the lack of the trappist. Dark brown colour with small head. Yeast thick particles are visible and floating. Aroma is toasty with a definite presence of alcohol, hint of chocolate. Almost a hint of white wine aroma.Flavor is chocolately, wow does that chocolate hit the palate well. Caramel, roasty taste. My palate is loving this, long lasting and very pleasing. Everything is well balanced. Carbonation is slight and compliments the beer well. This is awesome. Made my night.
