Dark reddish brown colored pour with a sweet fruity, yet spicy aroma. Strong sweet brown sugar like finish. Too sweet for me.

Bottle. Beautiful dark chestnut, brown ring of lacing foam. Fairly dusty and wooden nose, roast, nut. Sweet sugary base, caramel, very spicy, minerallic yeast, wooden, nutty notes. Oily thick mouthfeel. Spicy aftertaste.

Édition 2006 (BBD 2011). Robe brune foncée très claire surmontée d’une mousse beige épaisse qui persiste. Arômes de sucre, de prunes et de caramel. Saveurs de toffee, de prunes, de sucre, d’alcool et de malt caramélisé. Encore jeune.

(08.01.06) One pint 9.4 oz green bottle from DiCarlo’s, Mundelein, IL. 11% ABV. Bottle labeled 05-2009. Sweet malt and dried prune aromas. Poured clear reddish brown with small off-white head. Soft carbonation. Full-bodied ale that starts with moderate sweetness and dried fruit (raisin and prunes)/caramel flavors. Finished with light malt fade. Smooth and delicious, this is an excellent Belgium ale.

Dark brown, sweet, warming feeling. Malt and brown sugar. No hops detectable, which means it is far too sweet for my liking.

Very Tasty beer. Plum and alcohol aromas. Soft and full palate. Little on the sweet side, but very rich belgian taste. Finishes sweet but clean. Kind of flat also.
