Mar 13, 2006 Poured into my Delirium Tremens tupil glass. Very nice aroma. Dark dried fruit (maybe cherries), dark sugars, caramalts, even maybe so ripe fruits as it warms a bit more. Dense reddish brown with a fair amount of head. Rich and full of flavor. Raisins, light clove-ish-ness for the yeast, Very sweet upfront, but lots of hop bitterness to finish off the experience. Alcohol is evident, but it does not take away from the overall experience. On of New Belgium’s better regular offerings.

Mar 7, 2006 The aroma is the best part of this brew, dark malts, dark dried fruits, dark molasses bread yeastiness, mapole syrup - very comforting smells. Flavors are complex, it seemed like every time I took a sip I’d find something different. I great attempt at at Belgium brew, but still not authintic.

Pours a nice golden yellow with a great looking head. Very good flavors. The aromas where stong and gave off a slight spice smell that was awesome. The balance between hops and malts was pleasant to taste. A very nice beer.

Feb 23, 2006 2/23/06 (bottle): deep crimson with an initially substanial head that settled over time. Fantastic aroma. Delicious fruity malt flavors with cherry, caramel, and maybe maple? Excellent.

Feb 14, 2006 Pours a very light amber color with a very thick light-creme colored head that leaves great lacing. The aroma is a strong banana scent, with a slight hint of nuts. The taste starts hoppy, and ends incredibly smooth. A slight hint of an earthy/coffee is also present, but barely noticeable over the alcohol. It feels very active on the tongue, very light bodied for what it is. Another great NBBC beer.
