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.

341ml bottle. Pours very dark amber, almost black, with ruby highlights shining through. Very fragrant stuff, full of sweet and "ripe" fruit aromas, with that recognizable Unibroue spiciness. That same quality shows up in the flavour, full of sweet dark fruit and some distinctive spiciness. The port/wine character that others (including the brewer) have described is right there in the finish, with a lasting pleasant sourness right at the end. Carries an swesome vinous character all the way through. Boom ! It’s a masterpiece. It’s a crime The Beer Store in Ontario has decided to de-list it. I heard that an angel loses it’s wings everytime The Beer Store/LCBO delists a good beer.

Poured with a very small dissapating brown head. Deep fruity aromas and a smooth mouthfeel. Despite the 9% alcohol, the throat-warming is minimal, but doesn’t seem masked by the deep flavour. amazing

This Ale has a fantastic palate. It does not have quite the flavor of some others but that hardly goes noticed due to the power of the palate. Quite tasty!

Poured with a huge head. Very bubbly. Nice fruity aroma with a lively smooth mouth feel. Malts and fruits predominate. A classy product.

Pours a dark clear amber brown with minimal head. Nose almost seems like clay really. With a touch of cherry tones. Very sweet edge too. The taste. Slightly complex. After several seconds a thick smoky flavor kicks in. Starts off with a thick fruity edge, somewhat cherry really. Feel is thick but bubbly. Hits me like I want my Belgians to. Damn good brew. Very drinkable.

This may have been the most wonderful beer I have encountered yet. Purchased at Shores Inn, SCS, MI. Poured from bottle. Very dark brown color with a very light brown head. Smells of floral and fruits, and same for the tastes. Very light yet lasting fruity flavor on the palate makes this beer desirable, and the almost unnoticeable taste of alcohol for such a high content is a major plus. Just wonderful.

Bottle - Memphis. Pale Gold head with fizzy bubbles on a dark amber body. Complex aroma with apricot coming through in the end. Flavor is also complex but satisfying in every way with a warm alcoholic finish.

IMO the best beer that Unibroue offers. Very dark, extremely smooth (easily drinkable), and yet still complex. Brought in the New Year with a 750ml.
