Dec 30, 2006 The first thing i smell when this hits the glass is hot alcohol blended with grapes and baker’s chocolate. Further examination reveals layers of complexity and sweet malt and hop notes, also some strawberries and banana. Flavor is more of the same, very full and powerful, well-rounded and warming. Forthright and dangerously drinkable, a monster of a strong ale.

Dec 1, 2006 Thanks aspidites. Pours out a deep burgundy reddiesh/brown color (almost like cherrywood) with a lot of floaties. Aroma is a little oak, lots of black cherries, some figs and sweet malt. Flavors were just about on par with the nose with a bit more fruit and chocolate coming thru. Overall, pretty nice.

Nov 12, 2006 sampled in Poperinge en route to In de Verde: nose is alcohol, hops, and carmel malt, in that order. dark brown beer that poured into a trappist glass with only a small head, I wish that I had poured it more vigurously. While alcohol is very precent in the flavor as well... it is a bit too much but does work to complement the hops. I liked the sting up the hops and the alcohol with some malt rounding it out. Nice active and silky mouthfeel Still really good. and pretty cheap.

Sep 30, 2006 Bottle. Off-white fluffy and lasting head. Clear dark red body. Spicy caramel alcohol aroma. Too bad the alcohol is dominant. The caramel malt flavor is more or less killed by the alcohol. Wonder if the high ratings by others reflect their love for alcohol ?
