Bttoled. Purchased at Delirium Cafe. Ruby shaded body with a sienna halo about it. There’s miliions of minute tan particles suspended in it. A small tan head blocks my access to the beer. Aroma is steeped in ripened fruit (banana and pears), sweetened malts, brown sugar, light spice and cocoa. Taste is sweet and very fruity with candyish notes and some light spice coming through as well. Body is creamy with a mild carbonation feel to it. Finish is very candyish and sweet. Not too bad!

Oct 7, 2008 A hazy red/brown colored beer, with a small beige head. Its disappears quickly. The aroma is acidic with some sweetness and malt. The taste is sour too, with notes of cherries. There are some spices and some bitterness. The aftertaste is bitter.

Oct 4, 2008 Bottle @ home. Brown color. Malt, maple syrup and a hint of raspberry in the aroma. Full bodied, thick and sticky mouthfeel. Sugary sweet flavor with pineapple and peach. Nice to drink but lacks depth because of the overwhelming sweetness.

Sep 23, 2008 Brought to me when I asked for a slightly different take on a dubbel at Delirium Cafe. Deep orange color with a white head. Sweet with a sourness. Nothing overpowering like a gueuze. I like it because it was a different take on a dubbel, and something I won’t see again.

Sep 12, 2008 33 cL bottle. Pours hazy deep orange to brown with a lacing white head. Spiced and slight off and dry aroma. Acidic and light spiced base flavour. Clear infected. Dry and lingering finish with a mild creamy finish yet with a persisting acidic off note.
