Delicous. Slight alcohol flavour present but very sweet and lovely. Like Fearne Cotton. Just like the beer though, an obvious dark side. 8 4 8 4 16 TrefwoordPunk (548), Leiden, Netherlands
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 19, 2007 Bottle 33 cl. Pours a brownish amber with a medium and fading tan head and a thin aroma of sweetness and fruits. Flavor is nice caramel sweet and after that gets a little bit sour. Finish is hoppy and sweet, but not groundbreaking. Just fine, not spectacular Lowe1983 (1029), Fairborn, Ohio, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Dec 15, 2007 Pours a brownish-amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is of raisons, caramel, slight candied sugar, yeast, banana, slight alcochol, and some citrus hops. Flavor is strong of raisons, figs, caramel, and banana up front with a dry finish of banana, yeast, and a little alcohol warming. Truely a delicious beer.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 15, 2007 Bottle sampled. Pours brown with a nice off-white head. Aroma of light fruit, raisins, and brown sugar. Flavor is full and rich with sweet malts, caramel, dark fruits, figs, raisins, and some spicy yeast very well balanced. An excellent belgian strong. badlizard (2338), Berkeley, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 9, 2007 750 ml bottle from Bevmo. Hazy dark reddish brown with a foamy off-white head. Aroma of fruit, sugar, and mild spices. Taste commensurate with aroma with the addition of a sweet finish and a sticky palate. mike mcneil (660), St Augustine, Florida, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 9, 2007 Pours from the bottle a viscous murky and muddy reddish-brown color. Creates a thick and tight, but thin beige head which fades quickly to a few isolated wisps of thin foam. Lots of sweet fruity aromas ascend from the snifter with luscious notes of figs, raisins, black cherries, banana, cloves, molasses and caramel malts. Palate was quite full and round with a touch of oiliness. Carbonation seemed a bit tame for a Belgian Ale however. Flavor is very sweet and just shy of being a bit cloying. The alcohol comes through warmingly to cut through the sweetnesss. Delicious flavors of ripe and dark dried fruits, honey, spices, caramel syrup, toffee and slightly toasted malts coat the tongue. Finish is sweet and warming like a port wine. A gentile but classy Belgian Strong. Angeloregon (2024), Portland, Oregon, USA
