Great expectations to this beer, and unfortunetly served late in the evening afte tons of other impressions. Great dark brown look with a bubbling light brown head. Aroma is a winner! Very vinouse and oaky along with dark fruits and apples, carmel and suger, tha bomb!
Would have enjoyed the flavor more, if i could try it out as the first beer one evening im sure. The alchohol is feels intense but is very well hidden behind the fruity and sugery sweetness which again is balanced by loads of woody and eartheren notes. Overall just a pure winner!

Jun 15, 2009 Bottle from trade with ygtbsm94. Pours a murky dark brown with a small beige head that has great retention. The aroma is distinct with dark fruits, brown sugar and oak. The taste is lively and complex with more fruits, mostly plums, but also raisins granny smith apples and currants; there is fair amount of wood. The mouthfeel is smooth and creamy. The finish is long and sweet. Overall: A very tasty concoction, this is great stuff.

Nov 3, 2009 From Koelschtrinker via trade. The pour was dark brown with light reddish highlights. A short ring of tan foam. The aroma is dark fruit, light citrus, brown sugar and yeast. The flavor is more vinous and tannic. The wood takes its place alongside some malts, spice and citrus. The mouthfeel is medium in body, the carbonation was just right and the alcohol was warm and welcome. Good stuff.

Jan 30, 2008 Bottle at Delirium in Brussels. Sweet, dark fruits are checked by light, vinous tannins and mild bitterness. Soft, velvety carbonation somehow gives the impression of lighter body... dangerously easy to drink, considering the alcohol and process behind this beer. Finishes a touch dry. Warming. Delicious. One to contemplate for sure. Hope to try it again soon.
