Dec 3, 2007 Bottle. Lightly smoked, somewhat sugary aroma with hints of chestnut. Sweet, malty, almost sugary flavor. Lightly smoked with peach and plums. Hint of chestnut. A late flowery hopbitterness that lingers on in the long aftertaste. Very well balanced, both smoky and fruity ale.

Apr 25, 2008 Bottle, 8.5%. The aroma is quite metallic, takes a while to waft off. Hazy chestnut colour. Semi-stable light brown head. The flavour starts off nicely and distinctly roasted, then turns smoky and finally vinous. Perhaps a bit too fruity for my liking. High carbonation.

Dec 18, 2007 On tap at ’t Arendsnest. Dark bronze with a healthy head. Sweet, perfumey aroma. Sweet caramel flavours, some chewing-gum, but with offsetting bitterness. Quite nice.

Aug 13, 2008 Bottle. [thank you, bierkoning]
Pours a deep orange-brown with a medium, frothy, yellowish head. Aroma has notes of sweet oranges, hazelnuts and a slight smoky note. Quite sweet actually. High carbonation, okay mouthfeel. Flavour is sweet at first, lots of hazelnuts notes. Some hoppiness before a powerful smokiness hits in well. Lightly warming.
