May 16, 2006 I must say, I really like the name of this one, which translates to "The Monk’s mistress" or "The Monk’s teacher"...
Pours very dark brown, almost black with an off-white head. Very sweet aroma, some citrus fruits. Flavours are fairly fruity with notes of yeast and a fairly creamy mouthfeel.

Apr 23, 2006 Updated: Jan 8, 20092008-12-19. Dark mahogany brown body with a modest tan head. Sweet malt underscores a surprisingly herbal/spicy aroma, with Belgian sugar notes. (7+) Flavour is sweet but the herbal flavour sand light bitterness keep it from becoming cloying. Sharp spice note towards the finish lingers in the aftertaste. (7+) Smooth medium bodied palate. (4+) Rather good, but does not live up to my memory of my last sample. 7/4/7/4/16-17 3.9 <i>Bottle from Brown Jug, Anchorage</i>
April 2006. Dark brown body with a nice tan had. Deep malt aroma with light anise/licoric notes. Sweet malty base has a strong vinuous anise or licorice character, fruit, very complex flavour. Medium to full bodied palate. Very nice. Thanks to whoever sent this to me. 8/4/8/4/18 - 4.2

Apr 16, 2006 Bomber 2003 vintage poured a hazy dark reddish brown with a large lasting tan head. Aromas of dark fruit ie plums, raisins, dates, molasses, and some vinous notes. Palate was full bodied and warming. Flavors of dates, red plums, molasses and vinous with a dry, warming lingering sweet finish. This beer really ROCKS when aged!!!

Mar 11, 2006 22oz bottle from ClarkVV. Pours a jet black color with a thick foamy light beige head. Head receedes leaving about 1/4 inch of foam that stays with the beer throughout consumption. Sporadic lacing is left. Nose is light chocolate malt, lots of grape skins and plums. Flavors contain more of the chocolate malt with a lower percentage of the grape skins and plums, some earthy notes and peat. Palate is quite fizzy and full with a lightly playful finish. Mouth is left with a small film, tongue is weathered, and burps ensue.
