Jan 3, 2009 pours a cloudy reddish brown, some light brown fizzy head, very little lacing (at least on this westmalle goblet)
aroma is lots of caramel, some apple, ripe fruit, and brown sugar, maybe a hint of metal
sweet flavor, but not cloying, not as fruity as you would expect
nice medium-bodied texture but little to no finish

Dec 31, 2008 Bottle whilst watching Profondo Rosso. I liked this beer a lot. It has a great aroma and flavor of malt, with strong apple cider undertones, and a hint of brown sugar. I would almost say it’s a dessert beer, which I shall certainly buy more of.

Dec 29, 2008 Bottle.
Pours to a deep copper with a small tan head. Smells of sour cherries, apple, banana, and some fresh cut grass.
On the palate this is smooth and lightly carbonated. Tart and slightly citric with a yeasty mid-palate. The cherries definitely come through towards the end. Smooth, tart finish.
Excellent beer.
