Beer pours attractive dark mahogeny color with a big, then totally retained beige colored head. Aroma is strongly malty with a very nice yeast aroma as well. Flavor is wonderful, mallty, nutty, delicous yeast and earth. Mouthfeel is perfect, soft, creamy, perfect carbonation. Nobody can touch the Belgians in terms of palate. Wonderful stuff!!!

Pours brown - cloudy, opaque - with a thin, light tan head that leaves a heavy lace on the glass. The aroma has a lot of chocolate, some maple syrup, some spices, some grassy notes, and a bit of alcohol. The flavor is very nutty, very chocolatey, some maple syrup, sweet malts, mild taste of funky yeast and fruitiness, and mild hop bitterness. Alcohol is also perceptible in the flavor, but barely so. The beer finishes somewhat dry. The mouthfeel is creamy, bubbly, and not too thick.

Excellent beer. Pours a nice dark brown with a soapy white head. Aroma is roasted almonds and sweet spicy hops. Flavor is very subtle balanced sweetness with a good kick of alcohol.

Even better from draft. Unfortunally not as widely available as La Chouffe. Rustic, like a abbay double. Nice herbal and caramel taste. Real comfort drink. Visit www.achouffe.be or better the brewery.

Pours brown with foamy offwhite head. Aroma is sweet malt and yeast. Taste is fruity, nutty, earthy, slight banana, and sugar. Nice warming finish.

Pours a deep russet brown with a foamy, soapy, off-white head. Aroma is warming with notes of dark malts, brown sugar and toffee. The body is medium and lush. The flavors are caramelly, oh-so-balanced, chocolate with a ton of heat that really detracts from the overall experience. Maybe needs a few years.
