Thanks Kevin!Dark brown in colour, orange hues. Thin beige head. Aromas are malt, wine, sweet candy, slight boozeiness. Taste is malt, sugar. Alcohol. Alight burn in throat that lasts a while.

Pours a slight hazy brownish amber with an average fluffy off white lacing head. Aroma is spicy, orange, a little metallic, peach pie, nice and fruity. Flavor of spicy yeast, orange, a little roasty malts. Alcohol was non-detect.

2007 bottle. Dark brown with a frothy tan head. Nice caramel, candi sugar aroma with spices. Light to medium body. Sweet brown sugar and spices mixed with a dry bitter alcohol twang to finish. Very good aged xmas beer.

2004 bottle via Kevin. Pours to a beige bubbly creamy head atop a deep woody brown. Nice lacing. The aroma is mildly malty and figgy with a Belgian yeastiness and is woody-ish. Definite Curaҫao apparent in the aroma as well. Spicy with Curaҫao. Light Belgian yeastiness. Creamy and medium-full bodied. No discernable alcohol except a light warming of the gullet.

Bottled. reddish, a bit hazy brown colour, with brown big head. Aroma is raisins, some vegetables, alcohol and toffee. Flavour is spicy, malt, caramel, some plums. Very nice. A bit sticky palate afterwards,

"Poured a cloudy broan amazing fluffy long lasting lacing head. Aroma was spices and dark fruit. Flavor was candy sugar spices dark fruits. The alcohol wasn’t hidden in this at all. "

Molasses aroma and taste. A brown color with a mostly diminishing off-white head.

Pours dark red with a tanned head. Some lacings. Very strong sweetnes with the "right" aromas of yeast, fruits and prunes. Very abbey-ish. Finish a bit too gunsmoke bitter. Otherwise a very nice beer.
