Excellent looking ale that pours dark amber with a creamy head and plenty of lacing. What I liked most about this one is the fact that they don’t add any spices like so many others do in this style. Without the added spice the rich malt taste was quite enjoyable and it masked the high abv completely.

Pours red/brown with a small off-white head that fades very quickly. The aroma is malty and hints of alcohol, and the flavor is malty and a bit sweet with plenty of chocolate and coffee. On top of this there is a solid dose of hops as well. Very high carbonation. italianjohn (401), Bensalem, Pennsylvania, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 24, 2009 The aroma is that musky malty sense reminding me of Belgium.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 23, 2009 A hazy brown pour with a large, frothy head. The aroma is a mixture apple, grapes, and caramel malt. The taste begins sweet and finishes with medium sourness. It is a full body brew with a thick texture and long finish. It leaves you with slight alcohol warmth.
