| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 29, 2007 In the 330 mL bottle from Beertopia. Pours a dark reddish amber with a thick yellow-beige head. Produces an outstanding intricate web of lacing. The flavor is mildly roasted. Tastes of big molasses as well. It is syrupy sweet, not candy sweet. The aroma produces a subtle reminder of Testor’s model car glue. Mostly though, the aroma is fruity pomegranate. Has a very thick palate. The beer coating resides in the mouth for a long time. I think that I get a subtle bit of soy. This is somewhat like fermented pineapple without the acidity. I really like it a lot. josuemucho (86), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Mar 28, 2007 Poured into tulip glass. Dark brown color. Roasted aroma with hints of chocolate and coffee. Alcohol is also detectable. Taste was sweet with hints of nuts and malt. missdipsy (2), Leeds, England does not count | 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Mar 25, 2007 Rich, warming taste; banana, with hints of coffee, and noticable alcohol. Pleasantly effervescent. First few sips seemed to have a slightly unpleasant aftertaste (especially if you breath through your mouth - was OK with mouth closed!), but this vanished after a few more mouthfuls, and became very nice. hophead75 (1952), Boonton, New Jersey, USA

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Mar 10, 2007 Another Belgian I am glad I tried. Color is cloudy dark amber with a thick, rich head. The smell is weak but nice and beery. Flavor is zingy, with fruity undertones and a good hoppy kick. This is the kind of ale you don’t gulp down, but sip and savor when in good company.
