FrankJohansen (3329), Sabro, Denmark Sep 29, 2006 Bottle. Dark brownish colour with a huge mostly lasting creamy head. Aroma and taste of malts and fruits. Good beer. Slightly alcoholic finish. themadmumis (344), Westminster, Maryland, USA Sep 27, 2006 Bottle, 1 pint 9.4 oz. Great pour with decent head. Simmers down as sweet aroma arises. Fruit tastes as berries and twigs, slight nuts... well rounded. Alcohol not too apparent. Finishes smooth. Lulls one to great times. spporras (260), Finland Sep 26, 2006 (Bottle BB 14/06/09) Caramel and slightly alcohol aroma. Amber colour, bright and small, light brown, fully diminishing head. Caramel and berry-like flavour with slight spiciness. Lively carbonated, alcoholic (not too much; actually only warming), medium-bodied and slightly syrupy palate. Very delicious strong ale! 10/09/06 thomat (666), Göteborg, Sweden Sep 26, 2006 Dark brown color with a small white head. Malty with notes of fruit (citrus ?)
Medium to full body with a long and very complex, bitter/sweet aftertaste. badnewsbeers (1026), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA Sep 25, 2006 rootbeer brown body with small white head...splendid aroma of chewy malts, toasty caramels, toffee, nougat, twigs and berries...flavor begins nice and sugary, leading to caramel, brown sugar, and molasses notes...nice palate, and an excellent beer! csbosox (1076), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA Sep 20, 2006 Bottle is from BeerBuzzMontreal and has been cellaring for at least a year and a half. bb 14/06/06. Served in a NB worthy glass. Color is orange/reddish brown with a small kahki head. The aroma is kahlua (first time I have ever said that) with some sour cherries and vanilla in the background. Beer is still quite cool, another 10°F should bring the aromas out, still very good smelling. As it warms dark fruits emerge. The intial mouthfeel is huge. The intial taste is nutty, deep dark fruits, vanilla, yeast, and wood followed by a bit of alcohol and tanginess. The flavor is missing a little complexity (for the style) but this doesn’t diminish the fact that this is a great beer. Thanks BBM! BeerBiker (1384), Odense, Denmark Sep 15, 2006 Bottle. Nice brown beer with notes of sweetness, fruit, yeast and well balanced. Sweet finish! BuckeyeBoy (1645), Boise, Idaho, USA Sep 13, 2006 On Tap at Flying Pie Boise. Pours out a Dark brown topped with a small tan head. Very smooth for a Belgain strong.
