Jun 17, 2008 Bottle, Cloudy brown color with an excellent lasting head. Aroma of plum and raisins. I believe it has little too much carbonation. Definitely has some dark chocolate mixed in with aroma. Excellent beer all around. Complex in nature and well balanced.

Jun 15, 2008 Bottle. Dark brown with a nice head. Not as much flavor as the 10 but still good. Alcohol is a little more present than the 10 even though it has a lower ABV. Good stuff though.

Jun 15, 2008 Bottled. Color is hazy brown, huge thick and foamy head with nice lacing. Nose is fruity and licoric. Aroma has fruits, yeast and and alcohol comes through. Flavour is fruity , yeasty, with hops. Nice but 10 is much better.

Jun 13, 2008 pours nice dark ruby color. very little head. small amount of cloves in the aroma and flavor. a bit too carbonated for my tastes. not worth the $$$.

Jun 12, 2008 Pours blacker than the ace of spades, with a succulent white head that keeps on coming. Aromatically it seems earthy/fruity with a subtle chocolate overtone. The flavor is outstanding. Chocolaty and sweet, the alcohol sorta jumps out at you initially but then just blends back in with the plethora of well crafted flavors. Very nice brew!

Jun 12, 2008 What a great beer...wow. Nice brown puor. Aromas of chocolate, dried fruit, sweet syrup, wood and high quality malt. Flavor is so well balanced it is hard to think there is much better. Rich and creamy....YES!

Jun 12, 2008 Updated: Jun 23, 2009Bottle, cellar temp. Dark, beautifully muddy pour with huge beige head. Aromas of bittersweet chocolate, caramel, dark fruits, malt... all balanced very nicely and not too sweet. Tastes of bittersweet chocolate cake. Good call, gueuze is god, in saying that it smells and tastes like German chocolate cake. I also thought it had a nice fruitiness (a little plum, summer fruits) without being overly sweet. Some mild floral notes and doughy yeast. Alcohol was very present on first smell and sip, but that subsided very quickly, and this had a surprisingly light feel considering how dark and cloudy it was. Much closer to the 10 than to the 6. Great beer. Sooo good.
