The aroma is sweet and malty; cloudy, medium-amber with a long-lasting head; nicely smooth and thick; initially sweet, then the taste turns to alcohol with just a slight amount of bitterness - unfortunately, the alcohol dominates

Dec 21, 2009 Debuisson Scaldis 250 ml 12%
Smooth, sweet aroma with little to no alcohol smell. Some woody aromas with non descript fruitiness. Alcohol smell becomes more present as the beer warms. Pours a medium amber color with little head slight haziness. Lots of carbonation on the inside of the glass a la champagne. Slightly oily mouthfeel at first then broken up by the bubbly. Smooth taste with the alcohol present, but hidden if that makes any sense. Subtle sweet with a mild Belgian funkiness. Super yummy and easy to drink. Dangerous with the high ABV. Would drink again and be enthusiastic about it.

Dec 13, 2009 classic Belgian strong ale. Slighlty sweeter than most but sweetness brings out the fruits... Apricot, peach for sure. Nice balance for the ABV.

Nov 3, 2009 As Scaldis. Pours a clear medium copper color with a small ivory head. Aroma is of sweet dark fruits and alcohol, also a little cream and butter, but yes, a lot of alcohol in the aroma. Nutty, alcohol-filled flavor with anise and mint towards the end. Somewhat like a doppelbock or eisbock. The alcohol is way too present. Medium viscosity, average mouthfeel. Not well done. Overall, fair plus.
