Aug 7, 2006 Bottle courtesy of Secret Santa. Dark brown body with a tan head that fades. Dark malty aroma with notes of molasses and roots in the aroma. Sweet dart malt flavour with toasty malt notes. Alcoholo is not at all prominent. Average to light-medium palate. Quite drinkable double.

Jul 30, 2006 I like the fruity esters produced from the yeast as they go nicely with the higher alcohol levels. Not a lot of hops but they aren’t suppposed to be in this style. I am not a huge Belgian fan but this one is probably the best double that i have had.

Jul 7, 2006 Rather odd. Pours a brown/red. Aroma of rotting fruit. Flavors of fruit, malt, rotting fruit, and some spice and bittersweetness. Pretty good, but I honestly can’t figure out if I like it or not. There’s just that very strange rotting fruit flavor that I can’t get out of my mouth.

Jun 30, 2006 This was an okay beer, but for some reason, I am getting away from Belgian beer styles. It was very fruity and malty, and well worth the try.

Jun 30, 2006 Pours like rootbeer w/ shallow semi creamyfroth. Aromas of port wine with a drop of medicinal raisons. Full nectar w/ ample residuals. Flavors are strong and fruity w/ plums, brown sugar, fig, rootbeer, licorice, and medicine. Finish is long, fruity and medicinal with a trace of bittering. As it warms you get a little iodne and leather. Alcohol is well hidden. Overall: complex and slightly sweet. A true expression from an American brewer. Highly recommended.

Jun 29, 2006 Fun packaging with the wax seal! Rich mahogany brown with a tall tan head showing good retention. Aromas of bubblegum, milk chocolate, and faint fruit. Palate full of flavours of the same, velvety mouthfeel, medium bodied. Very well balanced and a pleasure to drink.

Jun 15, 2006 Nice clear brown color with a small tan head. Taste is fruity with some caramels, bittersweetness, spices, and yeast. I liked the balance of flavors and the crisp, clean finish.
