Commercial Description:
Strong Belgian type ale similar to a Port wine ! Is as dark as can be, mellow in taste with an aroma of ripe fruits. It can be compared to an old porto and is brewed from well roasted malt.

Pours a dark dark brown with a small tan head. Nice aroma of fruits and yeast. Good sweetness. Alcohol is well hidden. Good stuff.

Pours dark brown with a white head. Aroma is very fruity with hints of Belgian yeast. Very yeasty flavor. Some darker malts give off some nice fruity flavors as well . Spicy too. Very wine like.

Aroma is metallic for some reason. Over ripe banana also. Roasted flavor and almost no hops. The thing I like about this beer is the alcohol quality to it. It is stronger than most, but it gives it a kick that goes well with the fruit flavors of it. The description is pretty accurate about the port qualities to this beer. I look forward to trying more of the Unibroue beers since we can get them in my area pretty easily.

Rating 250, quarter of the way to beergod status. 12 oz. bottle poured into tumbler- poured semi-transparent very darken amber, tan head slowly bubbled away, light carbonation. Aroma of yeast and a touch of sweetness (almost a lab quality sucrose). Hits the mouth with a great medium body, fruits and sweetness dictate the tones, and kicks you in the mouth. Very little, if any, hops can be noticed; alcohol not very noticeable at all. If I had to choose one word to describe it, it would be UNDERRATED!

It was way under my expectations. It poured a dark, dark black but the head was small. It tasted a bit over processed for such a good brewery.

Brown color; big lingering light brown head. Aroma of funky tropical fruit and malts. Significant carbonation. Rich malts, funky fruits, passion fruit, fig, wine/wood flavor, earth, alcohol, toffee, sweet malts, bitter and rough finish. Not my favorite Unibrou but tasty and rich.
