Pours a murky, deep brown with two fingers of frothy, beige head that leaves behind patchy lace. The nose is of rum-raisin, brown sugar and ripe plums finishing with a light, malty booziness. Medium-bodied and creamy with a spicy, flinty finish that dries the front third of your tongue. Raisin bread dough, spicy yeasty, brown sugar, plums and light alcohol. Well balanced and quite drinkable for a beer of this complexity, but it lacks the overall refinement and mouthfeel of its "big brother", Abt 12.

Jul 12, 2008 Bottle. 11.2. Not much on the nose, a dryish must. Pours a deep brownish black with a small off white head. Taste is big and sweet with caramel figs and raisins.

Jul 11, 2008 11oz bottle poured into the St Bernardus Glass. Pours a thick beige head. Yet again St. Bernardus has yet to fail in making great beer.

Jul 10, 2008 Erősebb mint a Pater ezt érezni az ízében is.Talán még gyümölcsösebb/talán mazsolás egy kicsit/ ,fűszeresebb és picit édesebb mint a "kis tesó".Nagyon kellemes!
