Mar 25, 2009 Updated: Mar 26, 2009Fantastic reddish-brown color with a nice foamy lacing head. Fine toasty aroma of caramel and candy sugar, nice spicy character of clove and cinnamon with some vanilla. After a while when the beer opens, there are some fruity character of fig and honey. Smooth mouthfeel with sweet and toasty caramel, some nuts and fine spicy taste of the fermentation. Strong in alcohol but it is not an off flavor. Balanced and delicious beer, absolutely correct!

Mar 16, 2009 Such amazing caramel colour! Such strong flavour of malt, oak, hazelnut and fudge! Such high alcohol content! And there’s so much of it!

Mar 14, 2009 75cl bottle. Dark reddish brown, foamy beige head. A tad metallic, strongly spicy nose with ripe apple, celery, hint of rye bread and alcohol. A bit tangy spicy flavor with pepper and dark candi sugar, kinda muddy. La Chouffe spices times ten. Medium bodied, too strongly carbonated fizzy palate. That Chouffe spritziness doesn’t totally fit in here.

Feb 22, 2009 poured dark and cloudy brown with a mild head. Aroma of malt and scotch. Taste is yeasty malty scotch - not as strong as most Scotch Ale’s that have had and this is a plus
