The Struise guys drove all night to get to the festival in time and brought some of this delicious Reserva bottles of the Pannepot. How grateful I am that they were there, and that I was there to taste it. Delicious combination of sweet double beer notes and dried fruits. Candy sugar, port wine, cask wood. Aroma is perfect. Lingering palate goes on and on. Please give me more of this stuff, its brilliant!! :-) omhper (12244), Stockholm, Sweden

Intense arousing aroma of raspberry and wood. Earthy, soft and mild. There’s cherry and wood. Deep complex earthy buttery malt character. The oak barrel character is restrained, just adding complexity to an already complex beer. Instead it is driven by superb malt flavours and esters. Mild, soothing and fruity, Westvleteren 12 like, as I remember it from the first time I tried it. Ultrasuperb - one of the very best beers I’ve ever had the opportunity to try. peterstrongale (43), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 4.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | May 7, 2007 On draught @ Struise farm. Deep dark brown coloured beer with creamy everlasting ivory froth. The smell is sweet and super complex. Loads of malty aroma’s going on here, also fine touch of spices and vanilla like oak. Slight coffee and chocolate accents working well with hints of dried fruits and wood. Mouthfeel is very silky. Taste is smooth, very malty, has the sweetness of honey and touches of fruits that balances wonderfully. Aftertaste is very long, smooth and still super complex. To me, the perfect nightcap.

The oak aged version of one of my favorite beers on the planet did not not disappoint. A dark brown pour with a spicy cardimum nose and faint oak funk. Mixture of other spices that were incredibly well blended. Sweet body had the same wonderful medly of spices and noticeable oak. Bloekie (165), Belgium

I never thought I would try this one, until Urbain came walking in with half a crate! I will be forever grateful that I had the opportunity to try this gem! djtimeless (175), Florida, USA

Smells sweet, funky and a little tart. Taste is sweet, fruity, and some funk and wood. Smooth, sticky and mellow. Lots of flavors going on here. Great beer, more drinkable than expected.

I think it is one of my top 5 beers.
