Mar 18, 2003 Paris, Place de la Contrescarpe, Cafe Delmas: Nice light framboise nose. Red-orange color, little head leaving brussels laces, soft carbonation. Framboise taste, grapes that makes it bitter at the end. Also some malty tones tasteable. Fullmouth, pricks a little bit. Wonderful on this place after the Rue Mouffetard market in the warm sun.

Nov 3, 2003 Pourred a nice copper brew with a huge head that stayed on for a while (What a start!). Mix of spice is not present enough for my liking and would have expected better body from a belgian strong ale. Alcohol is well hidden. Overall, I wasn't impressed and I had better brew from Leffe. I had this from the bottle and wondered if it wouldn't better in a draught format.

Jan 21, 2005 Pour is ruby amber with a dense at first tan head fading into a thin layer...smell is earth fruit and alcohol with a touch of yeast...taste is typical Belgian Strong...earth fruits specifically plums, a little overly sweet with a sticky alcohol finish...

Aug 12, 2004 33 cl bottle, bought in Denmark. ABV was 8.2%. Large thick head, clear reddish brown colour. Surprisingly weak aroma, but what there is, is pleasant: Ripe and dried fruits, just a faint hint of barnyard. Flavour has malts and spices and a great deal of alcoholic warmth.

Oct 4, 2005 Updated: Feb 7, 2006It was not that great, I preferedd the Leffe Brune, but anyway, it was good, and the colour was great, it is like the Gouden Carolus.
