A light orangish/brown pour with a large white head that fades quickly. A brown sugar aroma mixed with yeast and a touch of the 8% as well. A flavor of fruit. It reminds me not in a bad way of apple cider that had gone hard. A nice soft mouthfeel and full palate. A beer I enjoyed very much.

courtesy of cartdan. pours hazy golden, white head. Good example of Trappist, not my fav. of them. Pours dark orange with thin off white/beige head. Some nice grainy mouthfeel with dark fruits that seem to be overpowering the experience. Some yeast add to the palate experience and finish.

murky cloudy off brown color w/ a small light off tan head w/ some decent lacing. Extremly overripe fruit scents some plums and spoiled apple skin tons of candied sugars, oversweet. Palate is lightly fizzy fairly full bodied. Flavor is bad carmel and rotten fruits w/ some candied sugars. Never again.

Bottle, at home (031225). Orange with a off-white head, quite fast disappearing. Aroma moderate malty (fruity), hoppy and yeasty. Flavor moderate to heavy sweet and light bitter with much alcohol. Moderate body.

33 cl bottle, best before 02-2010: poured clear amber with a huge off white head. Drank at cellar temperature, about 68 degrees. Moderate bubblegum and dough aroma. The flavor? Pretty huge. Bubblegum notes, big alcohol, cognac-like flavors with not quite the alcohol. I would love this a little cooler but as it is, it’s pretty damn good.

Hazy dark amber with a tight head. Nice cotton candy earthy sweet aroma with orange. Frothy medium body. Big estery earthy fruit flavor with oranges and bananas. Has a nice boozy tang to finish. Enjoyed this one.
