| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 10, 2009 Bottle from fordest. Pours dark/amber copper color with nice off white head. Good head retention. toasted malt and spiced aroma at first but after a moment could pick up some brett. Could not pick up any brett in the flavors but the same toasted malt with spices were there. thought could not tell which spices. Bitterness is somewhat pretty strong and mouth feel is smooth with carbonation that could be a tad higher. Overall it is well brewed but far from the Bière de garde I have tasetd so far. Thanks Sean!

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 26, 2009 ’08 bottle. Very enjoyable. Aromas of vinegar, red fruits and caramel. Slightly sour taste, sugars, bit of funk--taste is really hard to describe, but good. alobar (1041), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 1/5 | 14/20 | Dec 26, 2009 Surprisingly disappointed with this one. Pours a clear amber color with a thin white head. Aroma of spice, grain and yeast. Flavor is lots of grain, yeast, and spice. Almost hoppy bitter finish. Less bitter as it warmed. carruthm (1171), Seattle, Washington, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 21, 2009 draft: pours a hazy with a thin white head, aroma is malty with some dark fruit, taste is the same, dry finish jredmond (1059), New Jersey, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Dec 15, 2009 Bottle split with tony. Pours a dark murky brown body with a good portion of sediment. Aroma is spice, maybe cinnamon; as well as some herbal scent. Taste is very well balanced as per usual with Lost Abbey. Flavors of malt, spice, sugar, subtle complexity - and of course brilliant alcohol masking... 10%???? TonyDiUlio (197), New Jersey, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Dec 15, 2009 Awesome brew. The pour is a copper haze. Good head. Little lacing. The aroma has some hints of cinnamon. There is also hints of alcohol, malts, and parsley. Very nice. The flavor hides the 10% ABV. Enjoyed with my friend James, my personal beer god.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 15, 2009 Draft at Drafting Room Exton. Poured cloudy brown in color with a hefty beige head that left little to no lacing on the glass. Aroma of doughy yeast, light hops, spices. Tastes of toasted malts, spices, toffee, with a little bit of a warm alcohol finish.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Dec 14, 2009 Nice red/golden Rose colour, with a nice white head and good lacing. Smells like raisins and caramel. Caramel, spice, toasty grains and bready yeast at first followed by sour apples. I really like this one!
