| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 12, 2007 The pour reveals a clear brown color with a thick, diminishing, offwhite head. Interesting aroma of raisins, dates with toasted malt, smells a lot like a fruit cake. Good flavor of raisins, dates and toasted malt with a sweet finish. The body has a light to medium thickness with a liquorous texture and moderate carbonation. An interesting beer, I think that Optimo Bruno has seen better days but it’s still an enjoyable beer. bu11zeye (5442), Frisco, Texas, USA

Flavour caramel malts, alcohol and some yeasty notes. The alcohol is hidden quite well, but has a little "stingy peak", which does fit in well with the flavour.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 29, 2006 Much better than the dubbel and blonde. No estery fruitiness (banana, melon). Liqourice, maybe some anis. Quite nice, altho I drank this propably too cold. thewolf (5727), Kolding, Denmark
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 26, 2006 Dark mahogany with little film head. Lightly sour with plums and berries in the aroma. Quite sweet and quite vinious with toffee flavours with tones of berries. Cornfield (4928), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 18, 2006 This is a tempting looking beer, pouring a clear brown body highlighted in orange and red, sporting a hefty beige head that laces the class nicely. It smells like a fruit flavored liquer, but I’m having trouble with the fruit. Tart Cherries? Some sour oranges? There’s a toffee sweetness in there, too. The flavor retains that fruity tartness, sourness. The alcohol pushes its way forward. Brown sugar tips its hat and shakes its hand with some caramel. The finish is hot and sticky sweet. Very nice.
