vianney (8), Saint Laurent, Quebec, Canada does not count Oct 21, 2009 Pours dark brown, taste of dark fruits & spices,sweet. Enjoyable to drink. Overall great beer. dand645 (62), Bayonne, New Jersey, USA Oct 21, 2009 deep reddish pour with a surprising long lasting tan head...dried fruit at the front...nice malty sweet flavor...thick and luxurious Chipper (179), Red Lion, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 19, 2009 Mahogany pour with a moderate off-white head. Lot’s of dried fruit and a little smokey aroma. Flavor is slightly sweeter, dried fruit and the alcohol is present and warming. Very nice. mcberko (123), British Columbia, Canada Oct 14, 2009 750mL bottle - pours a dark amber into chalice. Full body from start to finish, with a great spice, roasted malt and raisins. A fantastic Belgian Strong from Unibroue. fsbw21086 (69), New Jersey, USA Oct 7, 2009 Dark in color with a rich flavor profile. The fruity character is more of cherry rather than citrus which goes along with its appearance and roasted flavor. I liked these flavors mixed with spices which caught me off guard, but definitely makes sense. I would say this was good because of its high alcohol content and balance of flavors, but I prefer a Blonde Strong Ale. I can totally see why others would love this beer even more than I do. I would definitely drink again. JulienHuxley (165), Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, Canada Oct 7, 2009 Bottle. Pretty red-brown pour with an off white head. Lots of cinnamon and cloves in the aroma combined with some plums and malt. Pretty high carbonation, prickly mouthfeel that is a bit clear for the strong alcohol presence. Taste is very sweet/fruity and malty. trevor211 (500), Seattle, Washington, USA Oct 6, 2009 Been meaning to try this one for a good long while. On tap at Naked City. Pours a brownish red with a medium, dense head. Mostly malts on the nose (and in the flavor, for that matter) - dark fruits, some baking spices (cloves), not much to balance it out. There’s a note in here that reminds me of Dr. Pepper. Slightly dilute. It has a really good flavor, and would pair well with foods, but on its own is a bit weak. Not one of the better ones from the brewery. jeremytoni (1069), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA Oct 5, 2009 From a bottle poured dark brown with a fair amount of head. Nice strong malty flavor with a lingering sicy finish.
