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.

Very mature brew. Best of their line in my opinion. The taste just explodes as it warms. Would purchase again. Especially considering its price.

Not many better. To me a combination of the finest Trappist beers with a fine Belgian Strong. SO complex, yet easily drinkable. A new favorite!

Great sweet, fruity, malty aroma with accompanying taste. Very creamy and buttery with a strong alcoholic finish. This is definitely a sipping beer. It pours a very deep dark amber color and holds a great head. The lace practically lays in sheets on the glass momentarily before very slowly making its way back down the side. It does have a lingering buttery alcoholic malt aftertaste. Great after a long cold day. In my opinion, this is the best of the Unibroe beers. I am usually not a fan of such dark and sweet beers, but this one does it for me. Definitely gonna add this one to the buy list.

Very cloudy dark brown with residents. Huge foaming tan head. Very pleasing nose with a sweet fruity quality (rasins, cherry, apricot). More fruit in flavor, again rasins but a fresh apple like quality too. Smooth and gengle palate, you hardly feel the 9% at all (in the taste at least ;-)

Wonderfully dark and cloudy, with a nice sweet aroma and a great somewhat fruity flavor. Definitely my favorite from Unibroue.

First of all, the label is really cool. Then theres the beer. Deep ruby body with large rocky, tannish head. Huge aroma of berries and alcohol. Taste is surprisingly mellow, with a sweetness that is strong but not overpowering. There are notes of grape and malt. I see the comparison to a fine Port. It hides the 9% ABV well. Overall a great tasting beer that drinks well.
