Pours a rust red color with a smallish off white head. Fruity sweet nose with floral notes laced in. Taste is fruity/sweet with notes of pear apple and prunes. Alcohol is also clearly apparent in the taste. Syrupy mouth feel. As the finish approaches a hop bitterness begins to emerge and that finish consists of the hop bitterness mingled with the lingering fruit tastes. Good balance all the way through.

Bottle courtesy of my wife. She couldn’t resist the bottle with the "cute" pink elephants. Pours into my Delirium goblet with a nice hazy brownish color with a red tinge and a foamy off white head. Aroma is belgian yests, candi sugar, fruits, spices. Flavor is yeast, fruits, candi sugars, spices a little bitterness. I enjoyed this one quite a bit.

1/5/09 notes: on tap, Wurstkuche. Pours dark red-brown with a medium sized head. Aroma of soft malt, spices and dark fruit. Flavor starts soft, then reveals spicy, woody notes supported by a smooth mouthfeel. Overall, great palate, decent flavor, but lacks the extra something that is a pre-requisite for superior Belgians.

From a 750 ml white bottle poured hazy light brown with off-white head and good lacing. Nose of yeast, fruit, and spices. Nice smooth mouthfeel. Flavor is slightly sweet and strong with ripe fruits. Very tasty and enjoyable.

Nice white bottle. Honey aroma with touch of clove. Amber pour. This is a hoppy Belgique brew with touches of caramel and pine. Another fine ale from Delirium.

Bottle. Amber, cloudy body with a fizzy, off-white head, mostly diminishing.The aroma is sweet and fruity with notes of raisin, peach and apriocot. Hints of caramel and flowers with a slight note of mold. The flavor is heavily sweet and lightly bitter. The finish is moderately sweet, lightly bitter and alcoholic. Medium body with a smooth texture, though a little watery. Lively carbonation. Just OK.

750ml bottle - Pours brown with a big tan head. The yeast gives the aroma a nice fruit character and the malt comes in with some caramel accents. The flavor is sweet, nutty, and enhanced by dark fruit notes. It’s medium bodied and that 10% abv makes for some guaranteed winter warmth. Nice beer.
