Commercial Description:
Deep burgundy color with a big, fluffy head. Complex fruit aromas with a layered sweetness (honey, then caramel, then toffee) with a hint of licorice and chocolate. A big, rich, abbey-style ale that dries out nicely on the finish.

Bottle. Pours cloudy brown with some red highlights. Thick foamy head. Aroma is sweet and fruity. Flavor is fruity with some spice, licorice, caramel, even some chocolate as it warms. Medium bodied and smooth.

750 ml bottle. Poured a cloudy ruby-brown with a fluffy off-white head. Aroma was medium bodied and had a nice fruity/floral/yeast blend. Taste was distinct--a burnt prune juice flavor. Slightly flat and not as complex as I would have preferred. The finish is smooth and warm but slightly disappointing--there is simply not enough complexity to enjoy the finish much. Giid but nothing spectacular.

Mahogany with thick tan head, lacing the glass all the way till the end. Aroma is slightly toasty/nutty with some fruit. Taste is sweet up-front with light roasted notes and finishes quite dry.

12 oz Bottle-Poured a Cloudy golden color w/a fair sized white head. Crisp, hoppy, floral/citrus inital flavor w/some yeast to it. Had a spicy flavor mid palate w/a lot of carbonation; reminded me of a Duvel-It seems Ommegang is the American arm of Moortgat according to the bottle which mentioned Duvel. Kind of a thin mouthfeel w/a dry finish; Alcohol is well hidden. Nice light summer brew. Original rating was done 7/1/07 but accidently entered under the wrong beer (Ommegang Ommegeddon). Just noticed my error. Deleated that rating & copyed it to here.
