Jun 14, 2004 Dry, light oxidation commingling with piney, spruce notes and a dash of black pepper...Its pith is of cloves, figs, dates and sweet chocolate, very much in the dark Belgian Strong Ale tradition...Heavy carbonation fogs up the underlying complexities, to my dismay...I see the Rochefort link, although I feel it is much less than its comparison suggests...Thanks Joris!!...
