Oct 21, 2006 500 ml bottle, via rickgordon, consumed Oct 2006. Pours a clear deep garnet colored body under a small tight bubbled film of beige head. A good amount of visible carbonation. Aroma is fairly subdued, alot of fruitiness and some Belgian yeast mostly. Some moderate oxidation creeping in as well. Flavor has a bit too much oxidation for this beer to be really enjoyable. Still fruity and yeasty up front with some candi sugar, but the finish fades to a little sherry and a good bit of wet cardboard. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, with a lightly syrupy texture and moderate fizzy carbonation. Overall, I just didn’t think that this had the gravity to stand up to the extended aging. I very much enjoy oxidation flavors in Barley Wines and Old Ales, but they seem a little out of place in a Belgian Ale to me. It was still OK overall, but not great.
