Oct 14, 2007 Rich aroma of mildly dark fruits - plum and cherry, perhaps. Ripe hazy reddish amber color with a decent light beige head. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Flavor of caramel, plum, straw(?), coffee, citrus. The finish is lightly astringent, relatively dry, and mildly bitter. A soothing, ripe ale. Mouthsmackingly good.

Oct 5, 2007 11.2 oz bottle, poured into trappist glass. Pours with a murky red brown with a very light, soapy head. A rich, complex aroma of sweet malt and citrus. The flavor starts off strong, with the malt and citrus matched with caramel and coffee undertones. A lingering coffee aftertaste. This beer is great, complex, interesting, just about what you’d expect from St. Bernardus.
