| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 4, 2008 33 cL bottle. Pours dark golden to hazy orange with a dense white head. Overripe fruity, spiced and light yeasty with a clear presence of alcohol. Flavour is smooth, fruity yest deeply embedded in a caramelish and alcohol thick base. Yet the alcohol is burning as such, just providing a very smooth base and mouthfeel. Maria (6336), Thisted, Denmark
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 1, 2008 Dark golden with a nice head and a wonderful aroma with notes of fruit and caramel. The flavour is just right! It has nice sweetness, dark fruit, caramel, candy sugar and a touch of alcohol - really nice! Ober (1235), Bommelerwaard, Netherlands
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 29, 2008 A dark amber colored beer, with a large creamy beige head. The smels of some exotic fruits. A little bitter tast and some sweet touches. Veru alcoholic, which gives a warm feeling in your mouth. A good beer from a brewery firm with a very nice story. Rotorhead87 (117), Temple, Texas, USA
| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Jan 26, 2008 Truly atrocious. I couldn’t tell what flavors were present because I was overwhelmed by an ever-present cheap liquor taste. after4ever (2839), Brier, Washington, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 25, 2008 750, corked and baled. Deep grainy ebony brown under a thick, surging, moussy tan head. Gorgeous. Just gorgeous. Settles to a nice creamy layer of foam with decent sheets of lace coming down. Nice brown-bread-y nose with a bit of fig in there. Body’s on the high side of medium, soft gently fizzy carb. Figs, dates, brown bread, and treacle on the mid-palate. Delicious. Little vodka bite at the end, falling into a gently herbal hop cling of a finish. Really nice stuff. If they hid the booze better and boosted the complexity of the nose and the mid-palate, this would be a world-beating beer. BelgiskOlklub (419), Viby J, Denmark
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 18, 2008 Bottle 33 cl. Average size rocky white head that’s mostly disappearing. Clear sparkling body and amber color. Good lacing. Fruity aroma of caramel, light hoppy and heavy alcohol. It has a medium body, sticky and alcoholic. The finish is metallic and slightly bitter. The flavor is heavy sweet and only lightly hoppy. A good beer - but it’s one dimensional. BeerandBlues2 (3235), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 15, 2008 8th Big Beers, Belgians, and Barleywines. Pours clear orange with an average, fizzy, off-white head, lasting with fair lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (bread, cookie, meal), average hops (flowers, grass), heavy yeast (horse blanket, barnyard, earth) with notes of heavy alcohol, banana, and honey. Full bodied, gritty texture, lively carbonation, and a bitter finish. Long duration, moderate sweetness, light acidity and bitterness. gmonroe10 (172), Netherlands
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 15, 2008 A copper pour with thick head that quickly dissipates- smell is fruity and alcohol is hardly palatable. bit of bite, but nothing compared to the doubles or triples- much smoother. This is the first quadrupel i’ve had, and impressed.
