Delirium Nocturnum

Brewed by Brouwerij Huyghe
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Melle, Belgium

Bottle pours a dar4k amber witha huge sandy colored head. ots of dark malts and pitted fruits. raisons and dates but not so sweet. Flavor was carmel and that funky belgian yeast. Nice smooth palate and very lively carbonation.

Very dark amber/brown in color, full frothy head. Nose is sweet malts, raisins, dried fruit with hints of mocha and alcohol. Medium, almost full in body but smooth and creamy. Alcohol in the nose does not translate into alcohol on the tongue. No bite which really allows the flavors and aromas to dominate. A very good belgian.

Remember this being raw and rather harsh. An "ugh" reaction upon swallow... not something I would search out again . . .

I keep buying it, drinking it, and remembering that I don’t like it. Too syrupy. Makes me want to stop drinking and go to sleep. Maybe that is where they get the name. If it wasn’t in a fancy botle with cool psychadelic art I don’t think it would even be considered on a "good" beer list.

hmm...not brown / red as people say. Tap, cloudy, pale yellow. Skunky, dry banana, strong yeast aroma. Sour, sweet, ...not great. tastes like lots of stuff I don’t like. black licorish....citricy, acidic. A little bubblegum. weird.

Pours a brown/red murky color with huge head. Aroma is malts and alcohol. Interesting taste. I taste alcohol, tobbacco and apricots- or some fruit along that line. Strong, but pleasant alcohol flavor. Kind of like eating, smoking, and drinking all at once. A very drinkable ale; not my favorite, but definatly worth trying.

(bottle into a duvel tulip) Aroma of sweet malts, ethanol and apricots. Pours a cloudy mahogany with dirty white head. Fizzy with a shallow finish. Notes of ethanol and sugar cookies. Not too shabby.

Wow, malty smell, also can smell the alcohol. The taste is malty, you can taste the alcohol, it’s like a party of flavor in my mouth, great.
