33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ Mitra. Ruby brown with a tan head. ’brown cafe’ smell, a mix of decades of beer, tabacco and biljarts. A bit odd description I realise but that was the association I got when smelling this beer. Taste is peppery, hoppy, malty and full bodied. Great, great aftertaste with some lasting tingeling of the tongue. Great, often overlooked Belgian strong ale.

Jan 2010: Cork and caged 0.75 litre bottle. Very dark, deep ruby red body, the head left quickly, leaving a tan coloured collar around the glasses, no lacing. The smell was sweet, toffee (as used on toffee apples) with a roasted malt overtone. The taste was almost of treacle, very malty and sweetish. The aftertaste becoming more bitter as the mouth dried. The alcohol rules the mouthfeel, it hits you almost before the tastebuds can pick up the other flavours. Not a session beer, but good with friends.

330 ml bottle via Beer Planet. Pours a deep red brown with huge head that takes some time to dissipate. Aromas of malt and caramel. Taste of dark fruit, malt, brown sugar and some spice. Warm but nicely balanced for 12%. A good beer.

33 cl bottle @ home, BBE 30.07.2013
Aroma is sweetish and perfume-like with dark fruits and brown sugar. Also some raisins. Flavour is rather sweet with lots of burned sugar, some toffee and raisins. Warming alcohol in the finish. Palate is a bit too high on CO2. Nice one, could be even better without the overwhelming sweetness.

11.2 oz bottle. Pours opaque muddy brown with a large beige head with nice retention; leaves a little lace. Aroma is yeasty dough, dark fruits, caramel. Taste is sweet and meaty with a faint bitter finish. The alcohol hides itself well. Carbonation is average, body is medium to full, mouthfeel is syrupy. Not bad.
