| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 4, 2008 Updated: May 5, 2008Bottle from OldStyleCubFan. Pours dark brown with a beige head. The aroma is oak, spice, roast, and sugar. Not all that enticing. Oak dominates the flavor. Lots of vine fruit flavors. Alcohol hot. Medium body. High carbonation. Very dry finish. Not real sure why this beer gets such high marks. Jerre (1755), Waregem, Belgium
