Haslinger (450), Syracuse, New York, USA May 9, 2008 bottle,deep, reddish purple pour with a HUGE offwhite head. Very fruity bouquet. Deep rich taste of fruit and caramel, slight alcohol aftertaste which makes sense for the ABV. Very good would buy again
NJBeerman013 (568), Trenton, New Jersey, USA Jul 15, 2008 750 ml bottle. Pours a ruby red, with a pillowy head. The aroma is of pure sweetness and fruits. It has a full mouthfeel, a well balanced flavor profile of fruits, caramel and some spice, and has a clean dry finish. Another quality ale from Ommegang. jcdsmack (18), Henderson, Nevada, USA Jul 15, 2008 Very nice appearance deep caramel red color nice tan head very good retention. Strong alchohol presence rich fruity tones good caramel and toffee aroma, some hints of chocolate malt in the roastiness. Fruity finish definitely dates, figs maybe some plum did not pick up the anise that others seem to have. Very nice belgian style Ommegang is good at what they do for sure. Making a trip to central NY this fall plan to take a tour. If you like Belgians you’ll appreciate this one. dunkpigen (243), Kolding, Denmark Jul 14, 2008 Bottle 2007.
