Oct 6, 2005 Brown amber body with a large light tan head, actually it couldn’t wait to get out of the bottle. Clumps of lacing down the glass. Pleasant aroma of cinnamon and malt. Taste is malty, a bit thin and watery, dark fruit and some spice. This would be ok for a session beer but not much else.

Jul 2, 2005 (Bottle 33 cl) Dark brown beer with a beige head. Lots of floating impurities. Notes of dried fruits - figs in particular - and some oily, smooth chocolate. The body is rather thin, surprisingly almost a bit watery. Some late bitterness. 060498

May 7, 2005 Bottled (BBE 2006)
Sampled in room temperature. Dark brown, foamy beige head. Malty, fuity, not very strong nose. Medium-bodied, metallic. Slightly coffee-like flavor. Lame grassy hoppy notes. One-dimensional but anyway easy to drink and not a bad brew as such.

Apr 26, 2005 (Bottled) Hazy darkish amber color with big yeast clumps and a very small head, plus some lace. Very pleasant and quite complex, sweetish-malty, raisiny aroma with rye pudding hints and strong, hoppy and vineous berriness. The flavor is much like Westmalle’s (sweeter, though), with plenty of hops, malt, yeast, orange-peel, and raisiny-rye-pudding. Medium-bodied, soft palate with very balanced carbonation. Slightly sugary-slicky and bitter. An extremely pleasant, easily drinkable and wonderfully balanced brew, that I could drink all night long (it even has a low ABV)! Forget all the watery British ales - here’s the (almost) perfect session brew!!!
