330 mL bottle from LCBO. App.: light reddish amber with a fluffy, off-white head. Aroma: yeast, spice (clove, allspice), fruit (cherries and apples), and flowers. Palate: med. body and med.-full carbonation, slightly sharp. Flav.: malty, a bit fruity (grapes and cherries), a hint of sweetness. A bit of the spice and flowers come through too. The flavour didn’t live up to the nose.

I love ales, belgian, british, all of them. This one is no exception altho it’s quite a big name. It’s got character, yet it’s easy to drink. It’s nicely dry, but not too bitter.

Tap as well as bottle. Very nice sweet ale. You can taste a lot of different spices. Small head, beautiful color! The first taste may be a little weird but if you dive deeper into the glass, a world will open for you!

Drank in a trappist glass. Nice caramlised poor... Aromas of plums, honey, grapes and somewhat white wine. Dry feel in the mouth, somewhat deceiving to the nose (smelt a little creamier). Aromas are hard to find in the flavors. Farely high biitterness. There’s a caramel aftertaste. Unequal to the palate compared to other belgians of its kind.

Poured a amber color with no head. Nicely balanced with a bit of a apple juice taste. Not bad, but kind of boring.

Has a clear, dark amber body with little to no carbonation and no head. Its aroma is mainly hops and isn’t bad, but it’s not one that urges you to drink it either. The flavor is in stark contrast to its appearance and aroma. Pretty good balance of hops roasted barley malt with hints of sweet fruit with an inoffensive, bitter aftertaste. Has a dry, easy going finish.
