Bottle. Dark brown with a beige head. Aromas are malty with chocolate and coffee. Spicy and herbal with some alcohol. Flavours are chocolate malts with berries. Spicy with warming alcohol. A touch on the gritty side but still decent.

Bottle. Muddy brown beer with a malty aroma, and a malty, lightly spiced and lightly dry flavour. Overall a reasonable beer that tastes very much like a Belgian style beer.

Bottled. A hazy dark brown beer with a beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of roasted malt, while the flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of alcohol.

Boy aint this a weird beer. Poured a dark dark brown, very near opaque. Moderate foamy head. Aroma is plenty weird, notes of soy sauce, meat, molasses, maple liquer, we are talking SATB territory here. Mercifully the flavor is different with a def bitter chocolate tone dominating the affair. Medium bodied, overall sweet profile with a chocolate and caramel finish. Light herbal character rises in the finish too. Fairly smooth and rounded mouthfeel, pretty easy drinking for an odd duck.

On tap at Salone del Gusto 2008. Very dark brown, small beige head. Nice chocolate aroma. Chocolate, coffee and vanilla flavours. Highly enjoyable.

500 ml. Opaque with a small lasting disc of foam. Interesting aromas of cattle farm, must, tobacco barn, licorice, chocolate, wheat and faint fruity bubblegum. Flavor is very similar plus some dry and bitter cocoa, cardboard, and metallic cherry twinges. Develops an earthy char and mocha coffee aftertaste. Medium body is creamy, a bit watery, tingly, and too fizzy. Interesting stab on this one, but not something I would return to again, especially at such a steep price.
