Nov 27, 2008 Updated: Oct 31, 2009Muddy brown with tan head, sweet honey aroma. Full mouth with complex spiciness. Alcohol shows through more than most.

Nov 20, 2008 330 ml bottle. Orval trappist chalice. Pours a dark, hazy brown with a generous, dark tan head. Excellent lacing. Aroma is chocolate, black cherries, raisins, alcohol, vanilla extract. But overall the aroma is fairly muted. Taste is very sweet- almost like Dr. Pepper or black cherry soda. Alcohol is nicely hidden. Light to medium bodied with some good carbonation. Aftertaste is sweet, chocolaty, and short lasting. Very nice and unique from the traditional dubbel.

Nov 2, 2008 Definitely one of my favorite trappist beers and one of my favorites in general. Dark, fruity, tremendously smooth, and a great finish...this beer is worthy of further recommendation.

Nov 1, 2008 Bottle. Served cellar temperature. Pours dark reddish brown with a foaming, huge, long lasting head that settles into a short creamy coffee-like foam. The aroma has a lot of cherry, some alcohol, raisin, lighter milk chocolate. Mouthfeel is medium, with some tail end wateriness that is unfortunate. I taste chocolate, dark cherry, a hint of the raisin from the aroma. The alcohol seems well masked.

Oct 29, 2008 I was never really a big fan of Abbey Ales but this was was pretty good. Pours a dark caramel colour and that’s all I remember because I had a lot to drink that day. I drank this out of a trappist glass.

Oct 29, 2008 Updated: Mar 16, 2009(bottle) pours a dark, ruby-brown colour with a huge frothy off-white head. aroma of chocolate, roasted malt, bread and vanilla, light hop spices and cassis. subtle flavour of roasted malts, green apples and chocolate over a herbal-hoppy backdrop. medium body, with soft carbonation and a delicate bitter finish.
