Commercial Description:
Dark and strong as the style implies, La Maitresse du Moine dances across the palate with complexity and mystery--just as the Northern Lights move across the night sky, delighting the senses and enlightening the mind. In the tradition of monks who have devoutly brewed beers of character and strength for centuries, La Maitresse du Moine Dark Strong Ale reflects the passion and dedication required to create a beer this heavenly. This Mistress of the Monk is seductive, pensive and intriguing. We say it in French: La Maitresse du Moine. Seduction is but a sip away.

Dark brown with an amber hue. Decent size head with average lacing. Carmel malts with some sugar cane aroma. Perfumy yeast makes the aroma quite enjoyable. Flavour was ultra caramel sweet.

Very dark brown beer with a huge rocky head. Sticky lacing that hangs around for a very long time. Sweet malts, dark brown sugar, prunes, dates, sweet caramel and a hint of molasses. Perfumy yeast with some coriander. Bready mouthfeel and flavour with a sweet toffeeish finish. Solid beer.

Thanks to Suttree for sharing this one! pours with a frothy head over a murky brown body. Off white head that gave off very little aroma cold, but conjured up nice warm, sweet, malt notes with spices, licorice and fruit. Some alcohol is present in the aroma that persits in the flavor and finish. Smooth fruity flavor is sweet and slightly spiced.

Bottled. Mahogany colour. Sweet and lightly almondy with some banana. Richly malty, toffeeish and raisiny, slightly salty finish. Big, flavourful brew, but too sweet.

A dee rudy color with long lasting head. Aromatic malts abound with sweet notes. But where be the yeast and spice one would hope to find in a Belgian? Oh, well still a very good brew.

A hazy brown beer with a small brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of chocolate. The flavor is malty with notes of caramel and chocolate and a dry end.

Dark amber color. Pretty mature malty aroma. Malty, verry nutty, loads of caramel.

Bottled: Dark amber coloured. Unclear. Light brown head. Alcohol, chocolate, spices, malt and sweetness in the aroma. Flavour is alcohol, fruity and some spices. Is smooth and balanced. Sweet and fruity in the end. Alcohol is pretty well hidden. Yet another good one from my secret santa BBB63. Thanks, Mike
