Bottle from Westpark Richmond. Pours a chocolate brown with a big frothy head that disappears quickly. Lacing is minimal, but there. Big roasted malt aroma with a hint of spice. Straight grainy malty taste with a hint of banana. Pleasant, but nothing special.

Jul 22, 2008 Dark brown with a low head. Yeasty and fruity aroma that can also be traced in the flavours, that are full of plums, prunes, liquorice, alcohol and brown sugar.

Jul 18, 2008 Bottle. Poured a dark brown color with a moderate white head that produced good lacing. Smelled very predominately of sweet fruit and raisins. The taste was about the same with added noted of banana. Dominated by the malt. Very good beer, although I preferred their Trippel to this brew. Better than Chimay which has much more hype to it.
