Brownish red, spongey tan head. aroma is odd - cinnamon and other sweet spices mixed with cola. Flavor is OK at forst, with touches of Fruity, cola-ish and spicy, but as it warms a persistant cough medcine note emerges and kinda dominates the whole thing. Ends up rather unappealling.

Bottle. Very reddy dark brown with thin light brown head. Chalky cocoa marshmallow aroma. Tastes more like a dopplebock or milk chocolate stout. Lots of chocolate, not the usual Belgian flavours. Still an OK tasty brew.

330ml brown bottle. Chestnust brown pour, quite heady - tan coloured foam. Good creamy lacing left behind. Sweet malt aroma, light toffe/brown sugar. Initally sweet on the tounge, brown sugar, light raisin, caramel. Chewy, medium body. Mild carbonation. Nice ale, a bit sweet, but quite drinkable.

Bottle and tap. Another mediocre brew from Petrus. Nice sweet fruity malts aspect though. Taste a bit more like a bock almost because of the thin body.

Bottle. Brown sugar and prune aroma. Dark brown with a thin film of a head. Strong brown sugar/toffee malt and prune/raisin flavor with light astringency. Nice drinking beer.

Mahogany is a great discription. Creamy, caramel, dark fruits, brown sugar, slight hop finish.
