75 cl Bottle, 2002 Vintage
Hazy orange. Woody, geueze-like aroma, i.e a little sourness. Flavour is smooth malty, rich woody(or is it cork?), a little chocolatey and finishes woody. This one might suffer from the cork, but what the heck.

Oct 13, 2008 12 oz bottle from Zenos. Cloudy, glowing light orange pour. Quite a bit of yeast in the aroma, also bitter oranges and spices. Too much bready yeast in the flavor, but really nices tones of mild citrus, far-eastern spices, and a pleasant hop finish. Nice creamy mouthfeel. Very good and satisfying brew, probably best enjoyed on a summer night.

Oct 11, 2008 Orange hue, cloudy with a huge light orange head that lasts forever. Takes patience to wait for it. Aroma is yeast, hop, dark fruits, and clove. Flavor is yeast and orange peel. It offers spices, pepper, hallertau hops. Such a good beer!

does not count  Oct 9, 2008 This is a great beer. I liked it better than the Chimay blue reserve and I typically like bitter dark beer. I will go as far as to say it is now my favorite. It very foamy so I had to wait to drink but it’s excellent. I can’t put my finger on the flavor they added but its creamy and superb. Not to expensive either. I can’t wait to have another.

Oct 9, 2008 Clove and Cinnamon aroma. Murky body clarity with medium body. Moderately bitter initial flavor. My least favorite of the Chimay’s. A little hoppy for the style, but not bad.

Oct 8, 2008 Pours a murky golden color. Good lacing. Aroma of light spice and bready malts. Intial flavor of spicy bready malts with a light alcohol finish. Not bad but I like the Westmalle triple better.
