| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 18, 2008 2006 bottle served at 52*F. Pours with a largish, rocky, light brown head covering an extremely dark brown body. Aroma has notes of spices, cinnamon, chocolate, pepper kernels, alcohol and apples in it. Taste is strong, rich ahd savory, with yeastyness, spices and some madera like qualitys. Alcohol is well hidden, and adds a nice punch about ten minutes into drinking it. Creamy mouthfeel. A pretty good brew for how far it has travelled. NobleSquirrel (1120), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 16, 2008 2006 bottle from WLV. This was not really what I had anticipated. The aroma seemed to be lacking to me. Some cocoa, caramel and soy, a little barnyard, actually. Taste was better, once I got some of the astringent carbonation out. Looked really nice with deep red amber color and big bubbled off white head. Overall a bit underwhelming, but still a nice beer. foodtraveller (31), Belgium
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 2/5 | 17/20 | May 15, 2008 Darkish beer with a not too thick foam and not extremely dark. Complex aroma dominated by malt and caramel. The taste is rather nice of cocoa, spices and fruit even if with a light texture and bitterish finishing. daniele (1746), Italy

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 9, 2008 dark in color. solid head. aroma is spicy and enticing. Taste falls short of aroma. A bit metallic. a little disappointing... Beerlando (2352), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 9, 2008 Pours a lightly cloudy cola brown color. A large, foamy, tan colored head settles slowly to a wispy, creamy film. A sudsy wash mostly rejoins the body, with scant lines of lacing remaining behind. The aroma shows tons of candy sugar, caramel, fig and dark spice. A wave of tannic fruit, including overly ripe red apples, lends depth and a certain sourness to the nose. Flavors are basically the same, with caramel covered figs and apples showing quite sweet. A touch of spicy, floral hops lend some balance, though this one still falls well short of the median on the bitterness scale. Medium-full and creamy, the body slides down incredibly easily, leaving a lingering sweet and sour coating on the tongue. Drinks quite nice, but this just doesn’t hold a candle to the regular Pannepot. There is an intangible magic in that brew that this one doesn’t capture. wacho (51), Izegem, Belgium
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | May 9, 2008 Geproeft in Rusteel Gullegem. het aroma heeft een zoet fruitige aanzet met zurige ondertoon. De smaak is wat zoetzurig, heeft een prachtig mondgevoel en heeft een aangename zoete (beetje banaan) afdronk.Dit zeer complex bier waar bij de suikers het verschil maakt tussen pannepot en pannepeut.
