Jul 15, 2003 Updated: Dec 11, 2003Poured reddish brown color with an off white head. It had a sweet aroma of fruit and caramel maltiness. Definite honey taste upfront, some sweetness, dark fruits turns alittle sour with a malty chewy mouthfeel. Slight alcohol burn on the way down.

Aug 10, 2004 Dark, dark, dark ruby color with a big, fluffy, tan head. Aroma of fruit (cherry?) and malt. The taste is great: black cherry, honey, malt, and a touch of chocolate. It feels like cream with slight carbonation. Good gravy... this awesome...

Jul 10, 2003 Updated: Oct 3, 2007Deep black cherry/brown color. Smells of strong fruits. Initial taste is heavily fruity and clears a bit, narrowing off into a bit more astringent palate. It had plenty of body and was overflowing with ripe fruit flavors, cherry being the most prominent, while plum and almost a blueberryish flavor contributed as well. Finishes with some yeast and sweetness and a little exra malt that is almost slightly bitter. This, like Trois Pistoles, is a beer I keep coming back to, I dont know what exactly it is, maybe my inexperienced Belgian palate, but I have found that these rounder, less astringent belgians are more in line with the typical anglo-american beer palate. Anyways this is good stuff. Rerate. Been a while since I had it, so I tried it again. Great pour, opaque, lots of beige head, lacing. Aroma is pretty decent, plums, alcohol, raisins, slight tart cherry. Flavor begins with brown sugar and dry plums, good amount of malt. Dries out towards the finish, which is a bit too astringent, while the alcohol is quite apparent. Still, a high quality brew.

Jun 20, 2004 In my oppinion this is the best brew from ommegang. Very complex and strong with lots of malt and fruity yeasty notes going on yet it isnt overbearing. QUite drinkable for such a strong beer. Goes down pretty easy.
