ChristianScheffel (2200), Odense, Denmark Sep 8, 2003 Unclear brown body with a foamy off-white head. The complex aroma has some fresh lemon and fruit; coffee, caramel and chocolate; some earth and oak wood.
thooper41 (225), USA Oct 5, 2008 11.2 oz bottle: pours dark brown with quick fading off white head, aroma has faint yeast smell aloong with hints of fruit, flavor is kind of weak has a light tasting base malt along with some raisons and along with that complex belgian twang thats hard to explain. pretty good beer but belgium has a lot more to offer. wilderthanyou (322), Guelph, Ontario, Canada Oct 5, 2008 The beer pours a deep murky brown with a sticky light beige head. The aroma is very yeasty with light notes of some dark fruits, a little thin for a Belgian. The flavour was pretty decent, mostly of dark fruits, but the finish is what makes this beer, first there is a dry hoppy sour bitterness that melts away to leave behind this dark sour cherry flavour that sits on your tongue until the next sip, friggin awesome. matt7215 (578), Cambridge, Ontario, Canada Oct 5, 2008 330ml bottle from the LCBO. pours beautiful deep red/brown with a big tan head. dark fruit aromas with yeast coming through with slight alcohol as well. flavours are a slight let down. nice dubble qualities but very rough and boozy. im goin to let my other bottles sleep in the cellar for awhile. patricks110 (170), Alberta, Canada Oct 5, 2008 In 2 words: completely outstanding. My first trappist beer. From bottlescrew bills, Calgary AB. Pours a dark brown with hints of red and purple. Looks almost like Pepsi or Coke. Aroma of fruity hops, sweet malts and slight bitterness. Taste is pretty unique and interesting. Nutty earth fruit flavour and malts which dance on my tongue. Overall, an incredible beer and a wonderful display of brewmanship from Belgium. MrBunn (888), Western, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 3, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown with a fluffy tan head and aromas of dark fruit and a little bit of tartness. First sip reveals a kind of earthy, fruity mix with some almost smokey moments, a touch of spice and a smooth mouthfeel. Carbonation is a bit out of control during each sip...
