Apr 6, 2008 On tap at the 2008 Cheers to Belgian Beers event. Pours dark amber with a tall beige head. Soft caramel flavor, light hint of berry and raisin. Hops gave a sort of veggie green flavor that didn’t sit well with me and made this a bit to bitter which kept the malts on the back burner a bit.
