Apr 12, 2006 Bottle. Reddy brown body with a creamy off white head. (3+) Sweet dark caramel and burnt candy sugars in the aroma carry over to the flavour, which is quite sweet with plent of sugars and malt throughout. Sort of a generic Belgian, but quite pleasantly so! Medium palate.

Apr 6, 2006 The aroma is heavy with dark fruit, yeast, toffee, and spices. The appearance is dark red brown with a very large foamy head. The flavor has plums, figs, raisins, cloves, and brown sugar. The alcohol is very assertive as well. The palate is typical for the style. Very nice ale.

Apr 3, 2006 No head to speak of but good thick lacing. Murky reddish brown in the glass, plenty of ‘floaties’. Strong nose, high powered dark malts, gives a slightly cooked feel. Beer steps up a gear in the mouth, powerful malts, hints of sweetness, some alcohol evident in the flavours. Nice earthy, savoury, pongy malts. Sipping style.

Mar 25, 2006 Bottle at Den Tatoverede Enke, RBESG Pub Crawl, August 2005. Well sweet, with toffee and treacle to the fore. There’s some underlying orange zest on the palate, but its well submerged and the whole thing is rather too sticky for me.

Mar 12, 2006 Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy bubbly ruby with a large lasting foamy off-white head. Sweet aroma of caramel malt, fruit, yeast and hops. Flavour of sweet caramel malt, fruit, spices, a hint of chocolate, too much alcohol and a somewhat harsh aftertaste. Medium bodied. This is just O.K.

Mar 5, 2006 Very deep brown pour with an uber thick head. Warm spicy scent that gives a slight burn in the nose. Strong taste with spices that burn on the tongue. Some chocolat made its way in the taste. Smells like booze more then beer. Really good overall.
