Sep 18, 2008 From tap, nicely balanced but less aromatic then the "12", looks like guiness in a celice glass, beige creamy head, pleasant aroma of fruits (quite weak), malt, chocolate flavors medium-high sweetness with some hops in the aftertaste, real nice but not my top st. Bernardus

Sep 12, 2008 Aroma: Sweet malts, cream, caramel, a bit nutty. Appearance: Dark brown, ruby highlights that are almost purple. Thick beige head, good retention, temporary sheets of lace. Flavor: Dark malts, getting darker as each sip progresses, cream, caramel, toffee, chocolate ... and then an abrupt finish. Intermittent insights of dark fruit, chiefly plum wine. Palate: Dry despite the sweet malts. As each sip is savored, it seems to effervesce its way into a dry nothingness that has vanished from the tongue.

Sep 9, 2008 330 ml bottle. Deep red brown color with lots of sediment flakes, big but disappering beige head. Came out of the bottle by itself - what a mess!! Aroma is fruity (plum), sweet and spicy. Flavor is also sweet and fruity, with the typical Belgian touch, maybe from the yeast. Hints of warming alcohol. All in all a nice one from Belgium.
