Jul 14, 2008 MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!� Is the best way to describe this beer. It just hits all the right spots. Bottle... Poured deep reddish brown with a beige head. Aroma of cloves and fruity esters with warm alcohol. Palate is light and silky with flavors of raisins and figs on top of buttery, dark malt. It’s close to a perfect beer.

Jul 6, 2008 Pour was medium dark with a full tan head. Aroma was of malt, trappist spices, and caramel. More caramel took over in the flavor but did blend well with the malt. Light hop and fruit characters finished off the brew. Nice. Would buy again.

Jul 3, 2008 Pours very amber, fairly thick head. Very malty aroma. Absolutely delicious taste. Mostly malty, with fruit overtones coming through. Exceptionally smooth, good finish. Highly recommended.

Jun 30, 2008 Aroma is full of dark malts, chocolate, sweet fruits, and nuts. It’s a dark colored brown and a nice head. It’s sweet with a nice balance of malts and sweet fruit. It’s rather smoothly balanced very nice.

Jun 28, 2008 Dark maple syrup colored but has a clarity to it when held to light. The head is heavily frothy and half the glass. Aromas of sugar, dark fruit, yeast and alcohol. The beer, together with the head is velvety and helps to calm the alcohol harshness. The result is a smooth taste with dark fruit, and sugars, and a fruit peel finish that is full yet medium light in body. A fine brew that has a drinkability rivaling even that of Budweiser. The finish is pleasant because it does not have that characteristic Belgian yeast stink.

Jun 26, 2008 Pours mahogany with a thick frothy head that dissipates down to a thin, tan skimming reminiscent of a good cup of coffee. Aroma of candied sugar, wood, dark fruit, caramel, and bready malts. Flavor contains notes of breadiness and caramel with hints of dark fruit, cola, and woodiness to go along with sweet candied sugar and belgian yeast. Slightly spicy. Dry, semi-hoppy finish with medium body. Great brew.
