IlanMan (575), Winona, Minnesota, USA Apr 20, 2008 Pour is dark amber with short lasting head. Aroma is sweet with some dark fruit and a floral scent. Flavor is very well balanced with light malt, medium dark fruit, hints of chocolate, and some residual sweetness. Finish is smooth leaving a little alcoholic finish in the back of the throat. Real tasty brew. Would buy again.
j_b (756), Rochester, New York, USA Oct 12, 2008 Have had this one in the cellar a while, finally decided to break it out and it does not disappoint. Fantastic looking coppery color, thick white small bubble head, decent lacing and retention. Brilliant aroma, oh so good, plums, graham crackers, a sweetness to it. Palate is full of small bubbles, tart and sweet all at once, sugary, with some warmth. Loved this. chrisafari (96), Orange, California, USA Oct 11, 2008 On Tap at the Father’s Office, Culver City. Nose: phenols, sweet yeast, plums and sour apple. Pours: reddish brown with full tan head. Flavor: begins with sweet plum and cranberries with and earthy grassy dry hop finish in the throat. Medium to medium heavy body, medium carbonation. Drinkability is medium to high. Kind of like a less intense Trois Pistoles and really weak Judgment Day. Still, though, very nice and very enjoyable. BeerBaron617 (153), Novi, Michigan, USA Oct 10, 2008 This is my second offering from Unibrou, my first being La Fin Du Monde. In comparison, I think the latter is better, but this defintely holds it’s own. This pours a reddish dark amber, with a light brown head. It’s aroma has some licorice, and burnt sugar, with a hint of raisin. The flavor follows obediently, being very similar to the aroma. Good beer, from a good brewer. Cheers! jkaiser (114), USA Oct 8, 2008 This strong ale is number 21 on my quest at beerfest in Sept. 08. I am pretty drunk now but I am still coherient and my mission is stil clear. Try every beer on my list. Beers like this one helped me reach nirvana today. edmajorjoe (55), Vail, Arizona, USA Oct 7, 2008 MIrky, malty appearance with a thin head on pour. The bottle has a wine cork effect to allow for freshness of malts when drinking. The smell is pleasant but taste is similar to a lager. Overall, tasty and memorable.
