Jul 5, 2008 2003 vintage in 2008. Poured a hazed amber color with an off-white head. The aroma was of aged malt, caramel and sweet cherry. The flavor matched with the aroma with notes of caramel and cherry. Their was less age character in the flavor. Light tartness.

does not count  Jul 1, 2008 This beer pours with a nice thick head that sticks around for a while. This beer is a very dark amber, almost the appearance of a cognac. I prefer my Belgians sweet and this one is a little bitter for me. It is also a bit too carbonated and tangy for my personal taste. This is obviously a great beer, just not one of my personal favorites.

Jul 1, 2008 I have this beer in front of me. The immediate sensation of aroma was of kriek cherries, in fact I wouldn’t be surprised if some were added to the fermentation. This is a deep and mature beer. One that is a pleasure to the senses. Murky to see through, but a persistent head and a mouthfilling flavour.
I wish I had more of this beer.

Jun 30, 2008 Pours a dark red with a 1" light brown head.
High alcohol aroma initially, but became more complex as it warmed in the glass.
Big cherry, malt, and a little smoky flavors were noticed. A great beer.

Jun 27, 2008 Brown/ ruby clear color with moderate head. Sweet aroma of cherries, caramel and malt. Moderately sweet with notes of wood, plums, walnut and spice. Very nice indeed.
