Sep 24, 2006 Updated: Oct 29, 2006Dark brown body with hardly lasting light tan head. Enjoyable malty aroma with fruity (grape, cherry) notes. Perfectly balanced malty taste that hides the alcohol very well.

Sep 22, 2006 Bottled(330ml). -My was Kasteelbier Brune 11. Dark brown coloured, small beige head. Aroma is very malty and fruity (cherries, raisins, plums), tastes like port or sherry with burnt candy sugar . Light chocolate and toffee notes. Strong alcohol presence and a way too sweet.

Sep 21, 2006 Bottle from 2003. My god, this one was intense... at first I enjoyed it but as I kept drinking, well... I became unsure. Dark, hazy, reddish-brown color... some soapy bubbles on the surface and a thick ring of micro-bubbles around the glass. Very sweet, malty, nutty and fruity aroma. Huge, powerful flavors--somewhat citrusy and acidic. Strong presence of fresh fruits (cherries, raisins), dark candy sugar... really REALLY sweet. Some alcoholic harshness, and some strange (somewhat unpleasant) bitterness thrown in there. Not very well-balanced at all. I was very excited to try this one but was disappointed.

Sep 17, 2006 Truly outstanding! This ale might be a wee bit sweet for some tastes, but it suits me very well. Superb complexity to accompany the malts, and very smooth and drinkable. A definite Karmaliet.

Sep 11, 2006 No doubt it is the best beer i have tasted in this trip around Europe. I really like both the appearence and the flavor. Balanced bittter-sweet sinphony in a bottle.

Sep 6, 2006 Bottle @ Delirium Cafe 27/05/06. Dark brown body with hardly lasting light tan head, a little bit thicker than the Oeral, sweet but not heavy. Slight dark fruit, caramel and vinous aroma, mouthfeel full thick and heavy, too sweet to drink to many.

Aug 30, 2006 Updated: Nov 7, 2006 Brown head with few bubbles. It doesn’t last much and leaves almost no lace. Brown reddish very nice colour. Nose of chocolate, cherries and plums, apricots. A hint of vanilla. Sugar cane, alcohol, sherry aged wine. Heavy sweet flavor, I think that I notice it more in the 75 cl. bottle than in the 33 cl one. Don’t know why, lately I find the sweetness a bit artificial. Mouth of chocolate, brandy, cherries, plums, apricot, sherry aged wine again, sugar cane, aniseed. A beer of the gods. One of them. Too complex to find all the characters in one taste.
