Aug 30, 2009 this is my first from these guys, a 2007. it was a gusher after i took the top off. you can really smell the alcohol in it along with a whole range of smells like, oarnge, malt, grape and something else that i cant identify. the taste wasnt overpowering, and it was almost medium bodied. it is a little sweet and has a warming effect. the head fell rather quickly, i wasnt expecting that, has little lacing and the body is a dark ruby red. it may be a little to carbonated though.

Aug 18, 2009 A nose of chocolate and yeast. Taste is salty, buttery, complex and a bit peppery. The alcohol is present in the finish. After a bit of aging the curacau-flavour becomes more subtle and allows a solid belgian strong to emerge. Cheap and very drinkable. Will buy again!

Aug 5, 2009 2007 bottle. Pours brown with a nice off white head. Aroma is full of dark fruits and esters. Flavor is nice slightly roasty caramel, dark fruits, and a bit of candi sugar. Very good.

Aug 5, 2009 75cl bottle. Pours a lovely copper with a tan head which disappears fairly quickly. Rather light, slightly smoky nose which gives little indication of the strong flavours of toffee, cherry, raisins and a hint of woodiness. The abv is not overly noticeable. Similar to some of the good christmas ales while being a little bit more complex. I can imagine this beer would only improve with age. Overall a pretty good beer.

Bottle of the Limited Edition 2008 offering, at BCTC. Pours a hazy brown with a thin beige to tan head. Candy, plum, and prunes on the nose. More plum and dark fruit in the body. A little sweet for me, but still fairly solid.

Jul 26, 2009 Poured ruby with a thick tan head. Taste was fruity with lots of spice. It was good, but not really my style. Bottle was 2007 vintage, aged roughly a year.
