| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 7, 2006 Bottle from Super Saver. Pours turbid deep coppery/brown with 2-finger off-white head. Aroma of fruit, caramel malt, some peaty and nutty hints. The flavor is caramel malty, with big dark fruit. Complex palate that is on the dense side, and rather lively. As it warms, it gets a bit more tart, perhaps even approaching Flemish sour territory. Kinz (2202), Glen Allen, Virginia, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 27, 2006 Been wanting to try this for a long time. Saw it in Indianapolis, and I would have picked it up back then, but I just couldn’t cram anything more in my luggage. Delighted that this has finally arrived in Richmond, courtesy of Once Upon a Vine. Medium orange copper brown, small but lasting head. Distinctly dusty and slightly smokey aroma, rather unique actually. Flavor actually matches the description by the brewer, apricots and almonds abound, really not much like the nose. Definitely a note of sourness throughout. I want cake when I drink this. Not bad at all, I appreciate the clearly Belgian influence of this beer, yet it still has its own unique thing going on.
