had a few of these at le cirio in Brussels. this and leffe seem to be on tap at most bars here. not a bad ale - seems to be under rated here. caramel and dark fruit malts. nice alcohol aftertaste mixes well with hoppyness.

A great goodnight beer with a long time to be sampled. Darkbrown look with a big foamy beige head. Lots of notes such as alcohol, raisins, Grimbergen yeast, sugar, dried fruits, smoothyness, spices and more. Has the elements to be a great beer, but lacks a little, I don’t know what, but maybe some metaldust!!!

Tasted 2007-10-25. 2 years old. Pours dark red/brown, clear with beige head. Aroma of rye and molasses. Ditto flavor. Initially a little bit of metal, but it fades. It’s OK I guess.

Flaske.Knap så flot øl, men virkelig god duft af stærk øl, ikke alkohol men krydret stærk øl. Godt bid i smagen som ikke kommer fra humlen men fra karboneringen, hvilket er en god modvægt til sødmen. Rigtig god øl.

Red brown colour, with a good head that doesn’t hold too long. Aroma is sweet, alcoholic, toffee, cherries, dates. Sweet flavor with a bit of sourness. Mouth of cherries, dates, sherry wine, with some hints of chocolate.Medium to light body. I’m not exactly a fan of Grimbergen but this is one is good enough.
