Commercial Description:
Piraat is a wickedly rich and rounded brew that packs a mighty punch. The powerful glow builds up from inside. Deep golden with a subtle haze. Lots of hops and malt. Mild sweetness. Reminiscent of bread dough, spices and tropical fruits.

Bottle from Peoples bar in Chicago. Golden with white head. Spicy and alc aroma dominate. Flavor is spicy, some cherry, alc dominates, very sweet. Med body with nice carb and alc burn. I enjoyied the brew as a tasty belgian, but the alc was just a little too much.

Spicy... I don’t feel sophisticated enough to properly describe or drink this beer yet... i can taste the alcohol, which is weird for a beer... i’m not sure if all belgian strong ales taste this way, but if they do, i’ll definitely have to get used to them (since i have 2 others waiting for me)...

Bottle, from Kolding Vinhandel. BBE: 9-8-07. Pours a muddy orange with a thin white head. Loads of yeast particles. Aroma has alcohol, oranges, slight fruity tartness. Flavour is sweet with a definite vinious fruity straetch to it. There are some distant spices as well as oranges en masse. Perhaps a bit too much alcohol compared to the flavour.

Bottle and Tap. Aroma is spicy fruits, very sweet and strong on alcohol. Clear amber color with white head. Flavor is quite powerful with hints of citrus and alcohol, ends quite dry.

Tap @ Publick House Monk’s Cell, Brookline, MA. Pours a golden color with a lacy white head. Aroma is malt, spice, with a hint of hops. Taste is smooth and a nice mix of a malt front and a hop and spice background. Good beer.

Bottle, Perth, Australia Amaging rish malty and spicy hop aromas, luxurious malt background with assertive hop bitterness and flavour. A bloody excellent beer.
