May 1, 2006 Ack! This stuff was too strong. I didn’t even do my homework before picking this up. I just saw this new Belgian style at the store and saw it for $7.99 so I went for it. I knew from the first sip that I was going to struggle through this one. Super strong and sickly sweet. This might taste good poured over ice cream. Got me screwed up in a hurry.

Apr 29, 2006 The alcohol content is masked well from my perspective. All things considered, another okay American attempt at a Belgian. So far only Ommegang gets there. Nothing jumps out at ya here other than you may be enticed take a pour to sample yourself.

Apr 15, 2006 Hints of stone fruit - peach/apricot? Fades to pear? Fairly sweet, lightly spiced. Warmed some a bit in the microwave - finally got an apple aroma. The room temperature approach: it has brandy characteristics. Still think there’s a passing bit of apricot in there. The hops are fairly subdued by the malt and sugar. Every sip seems to change the impression. Bemusing. Bewitched, Bothered and BeMildred.

Apr 13, 2006 A small off-white head briefly tops a deep amber body. Notes of pear brandy, hops, caramel, baked apples, and malt in the aroma. A bit watery and light bodied. The flavor was pleasant fruit and spice and sweet candy. Not a bad brew but not top-notch.

Apr 10, 2006 750 ml corked/caged bottle, March 11 2003 bottling date, purchased sometime in 2004. Little pop, and a pour of hazy bright amber, with voluminous lasting head, leaving quite thick fine-patterned lace as it finally dies....sweet Belgian candy sugar, peach and baked apples, and moderate alcohol presence in an appealing nose....on the tongue, moderate to heavy sweetness, with a maple/honey character that’s very nice, plenty of alcohol but not oppressively boozy, light yeastiness, golden raisins and a touch of funkiness....light carbonation, somewhat sticky mouthfeel, a touch syrupy, smooth and quite easy to drink belying the strength....not quite fabulous perhaps but quite delicious and it feels like just the right age.
