All hail the generosity of OSLO and Guerde! Dark brown color with a thin tan head. Aroma of cardamom, cinnamon and a sweet, dark malt. The taste... is very tasty. The oak stands out, with vanilla fading to the end. A strong brandy/wine character. Lots of Belgian yeast and breadiness, though not the strong spicy character. Sweet finish. I wish I had a gallon of this to contemplate.

Aug 19, 2008 Bottle. A dark brown beer with a beige head. The aroma and taste is of sweet malt, dark fruits, wood and some alcohol. Medium to full body with a sweet fruity finish.

Aug 17, 2008 Beautiful...cloudy head that won’t quit, medium-dark cloudy amber with many white floating yeast bits, a woody, yeasty, spicy, somewhat grassy nose and a clean, somewhat minerally, dry flavour. Like one poster mentioned, a hoppy APA with Belgian Saison similarities, a bit different, definitely special, but not the best from the brewers. Still a great beer though.

Aug 17, 2008 Flaske. Mørkebrun med et fint skuhoved. Langtkraftigere alkohol end i den normale version. Lagringen er meget tydelig i smagen der er end tand sur og calvados lagringen smager især igennem, hvilket giver den en vinøs smag. Udmærket og god øl, men langtfra en pannepot.

Aug 16, 2008 Dark, dark brown and a good long beige head. Notes of oldness, sourness, old ale style, barrel, bread, but all with a weak attitude, not bad meant. Flavor is stronger with similar notes. Smooth and with a sour and good great finish.
