(25cl bottle) Hazy, mahogany colour with a thick beige foamy head. Slightly sugary sweet toast-malty aroma with chocolate, raisins, light notes of spices and a tinge of alcohol and herbal hops. Sweet flavour with a tinge of sourness, full bodied with a smooth carbonation. Robust toast-malty taste with caramel and almost vinous fruity notes, leading into a sweet and slightly bitter finish with a hearty alcoholic burn. Another good Malheur (21.V.09).

A dark brown ale with a thin light moka head. A pleasant aroma of cloves, light cinnamon, butter, and alcohol. In mouth, a vinous sweet beer, with treacle, ouzo-like licorice, dark fruits, and alcohol finale. A very nice beer. Bieropholie import. BB 19-12-09.

Bottle, c&c. BBE 15.10.09 Dark ruby color with a frothy tan head. Aromas of dark fruit, darkish malt and maybe some hop florality. Medium plus body with frothy carbonation. Flavor is prune, date, candi and dark malt. No impact of heat. Seems a bit dusty. Finishes dry and slightly astringent. Very nice sipper.

Courtesy of keifdog. Pours amber with thin tan head. The aroma is dusty dark fruity esters of prunes, dates and nearing but not getting to a raisin quality. I also get some faint yeasty spice. The taste is very much the same with pleasing dark fruitiness moving into raisins then prunes, dates and figs then becoming brown sugar like with a hint of Belgian candi. The alcohol is there but not distracting at all. Nice stuff.

On tap @ KBF in Geel. Hazy dark brown beer, beige head. Aroma of caramel, yeast, a bit soapy floral notes. Flavour is caramel, dark fruits, malty sweet, bitter finish. Mouthfeel is full, creamy and soft. ABV very well hidden. Excellent stuff.

Bottle. Dark mahogony beer with an off-white head. Rich caramel, malt, dried fruit aroma with fig/raisin and light chocolate notes. Sweet caramel malt flavor with raisins and yeast. Medium bodied. Lingering sweet malt, raisins, figs and light yeast. Aging should do wonders.

Pours with a light brown, largish, creamy head, covering a dark brown body with reddish highlights. Good retention from the head. Weakish aroma with dark fruits, cranberries, and yeast. Taste is understated aswell, with yeast, fruits and light alcohol. Mouthfeel is fizzy, but some how works well with the taste despite the high abv.
