| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 31, 2009 Bouteille de 500 ml vieillie environ 7 ans. Nos yeux observent une bière de couleur rouge-orangée avec aucune effervescence. Au nez on découvre des arômes de fraises, de cerise confîtes, de madère, d’acidité et de bois. En bouche le corps est rond et sirupeux avec une effervescence nulle. On goûte des saveurs de cerises, de madère, de sucre et d’acidité. Le tout compléter par une douceur d’alcool. jkwalking05 (1483), Arlington, Texas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 8/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Jan 25, 2009 Ruby red color with a thin white head. Aroma is of cherries, raisins, prunes, and a little cinnamon. Flavor is slightly tart with cherry and light sweet malts. Low carbonation Grovlam (3809), Copenhagen, Denmark
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 22, 2009 Bottle 2002. First served cold: Small bubbly white head that mostly diminished. Spare display of lacework. Cinnamon reddish color. Aroma of vanilla, fruit, cinnamon, cherry, mild sour fruit and some Christmas spice like notes. Medium bodied with a soft carbonation and light dry texture. Moderated sweet flavor with mild counter sour notes. Lingering cherry and spicy sour finish. Served HOT: The head was more foamy/creamy like. Notes became more alcoholic and overripe fruity with mild sour notes. The body appeared a bit more thick when served hot. Reminded me of Gløg that is served in Denmark during Christmas time. Nice experience and a bit more punch when served hot. Papsoe (14996), Frederiksberg, Denmark

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 27, 2008 Edition 2002. Partager avec Jean-Nic. Probablement la meilleur Unibroue a mon gout car n utilise pas la levure "Unibroue". Bu chaude. Peu de collet, petillante, acide, fruiter. On ne detecte pas l alcool. Plutot bonne.
2002 Edition. Drank with Jean-Nic. Maybe the best Unibroue because it actually doesnt use the "Unibroue" yeast. Drank hot, little to no head, sparkling, acidic, fruity. Cant taste the alcohol. Good. MesandSim (5851), London, Greater London, England
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Dec 25, 2008 A Mes rate. A very generous gift from HogTownHarry saved for a Christmas day treat with Sim and Sue. I love these hot krieks and there is no doubt this is a beauty. Considering this is six years old it is certainly not showing. Awesome fresh sweet cherries with a hint of sourness in the finish. Just the right amount of spice and plenty of other fruit besides the cherries. Nice caramel notes give just a slight hint of the age but other than that, only a faint mustiness on the nose gives it away. Actually the sweet and sour balance is spot on. Mouthfeel is luscious as you would expect. Thick and full yet wonderfully clean. The alcohol gives it just the right amount of fun and coupled with the serving temperature, this has the most incredible warming sensation I have experienced from any beer. My god it is just utterly adorable. Harry, you know you bloody rock!
