| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 18, 2006 Reddish brown, clear, with ample light colored brown head. Smells of fresh baked bread, cloves, and cinnamon. Sweet and acidic with a long lasting malt finish. TheGrandMaster (1871), Auckland, New Zealand
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 14, 2006 Bottle, a gleaming dark ruby red with a bubbly beige head (that dissipated quickly). A warm and rich malty aroma and touches of yeast. Rich malty flavour again with peppery notes towards the finish. Quite a bit of carbonation in the mouth, with a sour tangy finish. Not as good as the Blonde. HogTownHarry (4025), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 11, 2006 Bottle (330ml). Via trade with mouton_noire. Murky deep chestnut, large creamy tan head with a lovely thick lace. Sharp peppery yeast, sweet malt, bitter and lactic. Taste is a nice sour malt tang, bitter alcohol in the finish, lightly spiced, improves dramatically as it warms. Average body, nicely lively and complex mouthfeel, slightly sour aftertaste, pretty good. themadmumis (344), Westminster, Maryland, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 8, 2006 One of the least impressive Belgian’s I’ve had... rated at a 3.7. Not too bad for an average brew. Take the commercial description and wind it down some and you have this one. One of the weaker Belgian’s I’ve experienced... Chimay and Unibroue supplies more, but definately true... bager (2121), Copenhagen N, Denmark
