Dec 2, 2007 Dark brown with a small fizzy head that forms and then recedes into a layer of tan mist on top. The aroma is fruity sweet of apples and grapes with some yeast and brown sugar coming through. The flavor is fruit up front and then quickly turns to a dry bitter finish.

Dec 1, 2007 Had this beer on 7/28/2007. Aroma is a rich sweet malt scent. Color is a deep solid amber with good carbonation and a tight tan head. Taste is creamy smooth and rich. Starting with a medium body it goes down incredibly smooth . Finish comes out creamy with a mild sweetness and easy yeast fruity flavor, then it sharpens a bit with a nice bitterness that ligers into a dry after taste.

Nov 29, 2007 33 cl. bottle. Cloudy brown-red color. Thick, cream-colored head. Aroma is malty and sweet. Highly carbonated. Tasted malty and very dry. Medium mouth feel. A nice beer, but I was a bit disappointed.

Nov 28, 2007 12 oz bottle. Pours very carbonated with a thick, dark-white head. Loads of flavors on the nose without sticking my nose in the glass. Sugary, sweetish, malty nose. Taste-carbonation blasts you in the mouth and nose, then the alcohol after that. The roasted malt and strong hop presence (especially for a Trappist beer) blows through with the candy sugars. This has never been my favorite Trappist brewery-but for $2.99/bottle I couldn’t pass on this.

Nov 25, 2007 Pours dark amber brown, forming off white foamy head. Aroma raisins, flowered hops with raspberries, plums and candy comes through too. Flavour is of lovely malts, cotton candy, bananas and burnt plums. Oh my Lord, a wonderful beer from our friends in Belgium!! Sheeeesh, I love my American IPA’s, but this is such a great beer. Next to IPA, my next fave style! Frigen awesome brew!

Nov 25, 2007 Dark brown amber with decent head. Aroma of sharp crystal malts and some burnt caramel. Flavor of burnt carmael, good malt backbone. Medium-bodied, alcohol content merges well in the beer. Improves markedly with warming/aeration. Banana esters and breadiness unwind. Enjoyable and well-crafted, but falls short of extraordinary.
