Delirium Nocturnum

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

750 ml. bottle. Pours a thick tan head of good duration with some lacing, over a clear sllightly reddish dark brown (SRM 25) body.....nose is dried fruits including raisin, cherry also a bit of molasses and barnyard......taste initially is slightly sweet malts, then light dried fruits, finishes slightly bitter.....mouth feel is rather light, carbonation is high. This is a pleasant, drinkable, and enjoyable, but underwhelming Belgian Strong. Both nose and flavors do not reach either the richness, or complexity of many.

One of my favourites. Dark reddish-brown with nice big beige head. Sweet smell of malts,fruits, raisins,herbal, alcohol. Taste is yeasty, fruity with hints of chocolate.Sweet and alcoholic finish.

Pours hazy dark amber brown with a big tan head. Aroma is caramel, dark fruits, raisins, and hints of chocolate. The flavor is caramel, more dark fruits, currant, toffee. Pretty good.

The girlfriend insisted that I give this beer a try... Pours dark with a pretty substantial head. Aroma is just plain sweet with a hint of funky wood. Flavor of sugar, prunes, and malt. Just not really my cup of tea

A delicious dark ale, albeit a tinge too sweet, even for this sweettooth. Dark fruit and vanilla. Love the bottle.

Dark pour with a frothy nut colored head. no real lace. nutty flavor mixed with a slight metallic flavor and a very apparent alcohol flavor. The palate has a metallic finish with slight alcoholic flavor.

Another delicious entry from Delirium. Dark and surprising with a tart kick and a sweet middle.

Dark amber color with a lively head which went away quickly. Rich dark fruit aroma and sneaky alcohol presence. I like it more than tremens because of the more balance phenolics.
