| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 1, 2008 Another good beer from this Brazilian producer. Very Belgian with pongy cooked toffee malts on the nose, a give away for the relatively high abv. More stewed malts and fruits to taste, with a darker fruited / bitter note driving the back palate. Fairly simple, and the finishing bitter does detract a touch. Goba (65), Brazil
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 10, 2008 Copper ambar colour, with clear beige foam, with somewhat density to it. Intense malt aroma and some spicyness. Intense malt and spice flavors. Bitter afteraste and ending alcohol feeling. Nice beer. nelsonibarruri (51), Uruguay
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 25, 2008 Botella. Comprada en licoreria. Color miel con poca espuma de buena retención. Aroma leve a malta y frutal. De cuerpo medio, dulce, con gusto frutal y con un final amargo bien marcado. A medida que se calentó empezó a aparecer aroma a banana y un mayor amargor. Algo mantecosa en boca. Muy agradable. Fukito (604), Buenos Aires, Argentina
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 20, 2008 Bottle, february 08. Thanks Sergio for sharing this one! Bright, clear golden color with a medium, frothy white/ creme head. Fruity, yeasty, phenollic aroma with some salty/ seaside notes. Rather neutral, clean flavor with some fruity and pepper notes. ome peaches/ plums at the end sharing some earthy hops. Alcohol well concealed. Medium mouthfeel, some chewy malts. Warming but not overly so. Nice, really well done strong ale that could do with a bit more character. Ungstrup (15420), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 2, 2008 Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a thick beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of alcohol, malt, and straw. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of fruit and alcohol, the latter making it dry, leading to a slightly bitter finish. Too simple - and not my style - more like a European Strong Lager, than a Belgian Strong ale as it is listed.. Skinnyviking (4173), Copenhagen, Denmark
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 17, 2007 Bottle. High fluffy but lasting white head. Hazy golden body. Strong although sweet barley malt aroma with fruity undertones. Alcohol tastable but not too dominant. Fruityness as well. For once a Brazilian beer that is not heavliy carbonated. Long aftertaste. Nice suprise. yespr (12415), Copenhagen O, Denmark
