| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 15, 2005 Slightly hazy, amber coloured, with a slim off-white head. Nice and strong aroma of spices, caramel, yeast and malt. Complex flavours going on; sweet malty taste initially , some sourness later with fruit, nuts and spices in between. Thin to medium moufeel, quite highly carbonated. Could easily pass for a more than decent belgian beer. dolemike1 (1129), Jeannette, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 1, 2005 Pretty good. I liked it better than the blond. Good thing there is a wire holding the cap on this thing. Thing could take out an eye or small plane. Alcohol is *robertus* and for me, the aroma was the best, and most noticeable thing. blankboy (3201), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

For 6% it doesn’t hide the alcohol as well as it should. Pours nicely. Not much aroma. Acidic with unpleasant aftertaste. Found it mediocre at best. argo0 (6890), Washington DC, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 29, 2005 (11.2oz bottle, notched 02/2005) Hazy copper body topped by a medium-sized beige froth fills out the rest of the pilsner glass lightly. Aroma is sweet, caramel, bready, plum/raisin -- seems like it belongs in a freshly produced pastry. Taste is medium sweet, caramel, raisin and light cherry, floral hoppiness. Light-medium body seems a bit thin. Emil (6074), Copenhagen, Denmark
