Feb 3, 2009 Bottle vintage 2007: Pours a dark amber with a nice, creamy beige head. A malty and intimidating nose with sweetness and Belgian spices. A little yeast and light florals. Taste is a deep malt flavor with a sweet caramel and vinous blend. Belgian spices and a fruity tingle before the malty tail takes over. Very nice.

Feb 2, 2009 pours a red color with a great big head that quickly dissipates to a small film. spicy with an acrid, acidic cherry flavor that cuts in sharply across the malt flavors

Jan 30, 2009 Bottle. Pours a rusty red with tan head which disapperars quickly. Aroma is malty sweet with a hint of spice, nutmeg mostly. Sweet flavor with hints of cinnamon, cherries, banana, and malt. Nice palate, has a kick without being too fizzy. Alcohol is present. Very good, worth a try.

Jan 29, 2009 Reddish copper color with a generous head. Interesting beer, the lambic adds a twist. Noticeable alcohol strength. Cherry and sweet maltiness in the flavors and the aromas.

Jan 27, 2009 750 ml. from Trinity Liquors in Spring Hill, FL. Aroma of toffee, malt, and some alcohol coming through. Pours red/brown color with a thin beige head. Flavor is great; mollasses, toffee, alcohol, a bit or cherry. Pretty smooth on the palate. Very very solid...a great beer to drink in the winter....Just another solid selection from Ommegang.

Jan 26, 2009 2008 bottle, OMG was this beer awesome. Pours a murky candy apple red with brownish highlights. Big, fluffy head. Sticky lacing is prominent. Aromas of plum, caramel, licorice, cinnamon, fig, and chocolate. Nice. First touch on the tongue is frothy and smooth. Plum and dark candy, brown sugar, fig, and sweet banana. Don’t get a lot of cherries, but the other flavors really make up for it. Very smooth-bodied, and full and savoring. Very enjoyable i want more.

Jan 17, 2009 Perhaps the sweetest Belgian style I’ve tasted. Malty as it should be with cherries, cherries, a little chocolate and brandy and then more cherries. Distinctive taste works well as a 2nd or 3rd round choice as you won’t confuse it with anything else. Very pleasant.
