Jul 22, 2003 Dark and mysterious this beer is. Thick,molasses and alcohol laden nose that is very similiar to Corsendonk Christmas Ale but a tad lighter. This is very carbonated and reminds me of chocolate pudding and english toffee. Yeast is subdued....man, I swear there is a Hershey's Symphony bar somewhere is this. Beautiful belgian ale that is highly underrated on this site.

Aug 21, 2008 0,75 l bottle. Medium, liht beige head is a bit soapy. Liquid is deep red and hazy. Fruity aroma has banana, peach, yeast and caramel malts. A hint of roastedness and burned sugar. The finis has clear nutty aromas. Flavor malty and has sweetness of dried fruits and a bit sourness in the finish. Not much bitterness. Carbonated but soft mouthfeel, thick and a bit sticky in the finish. Overall a great beer.

Sep 26, 2009 Confronts your nose with aromas of wood, chocolate and malt. Taste is a plethora of greatness. Caramel, toffee, malt, all play with your mouth. Strong alcohol taste that bites and leaves a strong aftertaste. Very nice beer that you can sit, relax and enjoy.

Jul 20, 2009 350 ml corked bottle. Cork shot up and hit my kitchen ceiling as soon as I got the metal wire seal off. Feisty. Gigantic monterous rocky head. Dark brown clear color. Very effervecent. Aroma of sweet dark fruits, malt, oak, and tartness. Taste is very well balanced with dark sweet cherries, dark malts, yeasty and a little bready. Maybe a little brown sugar and molassas in there too. Complex stuff. This is a great beer!

Nov 26, 2009 Intens brown beer with light beige foam on top. Aroma is rich with some caramel, candi sugar, raisins and malts. Taste is smooth, with a rich caracter of malts, brown sugars, fruits and an intersting bittering in the finale.
