Zwaar karakteristiek amberkleurig bier. Royaal van samenstelling. Volle rijke zoete moutsmaak met lekker bittertje in de afdronk. Puur om van te genieten. EBC 41.

Drunk this on tap under the currant name, must say this better than the bottle version. Bottle 0,3ltr: Winter ales supposed to be warm and spicy and have some roasted malts, maybe use some of chocolate and caramel, but this one don’t have it all. 2.8 score

Thuis uit een flesje. Amber van kleur, weinig schuim. Veel alcohol in de geur, smaak kruising tussen licht zoet en beetje bitter, onbestemd. Geen geweldig bier, meer een alcoholbom.

2002 version. Tiny bits of yeast float through this beer. No head. Portoaroma. Yeasty raisinny flavor, very alcoholic and prickly with porto and some tropical fruit. Poor quality compared to the great Belgian strong ales ( 6 2 6 2 10 = 2.6) 2006 version: reddish orange color. Malty, syrupy aroma with a hint of licorice. malty, suagry sweet flavor. Distant hops and a hint of lciorice. The alcohol is hidden by the sweetness. Chewing gum. Nice, clean, inoffensive, powerful and likeable barley wine. The quality of this beer has improved considerably over the years.

Drinks like a nice malty amber ale of about 6% abv. I would never guess it’s 10%. But it certainly doesn’t have that typical nice belgian flavour, just a nice slight sweet amber. online Beerwulf bottle. 3.7, upgraded to 3.8, nice barleywine taste

Bottle. Dark amber coloured, small head. Dried fruits, black cherry, caramel, alcoholic notes. Bittersweet. Full bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, boozy finish. Okay.

Süßlich malzger Beginn. Kerniger, deutlich getreidiger Beginn, die Süße nimmt ab. Süffig, etwas Karamell, wenig herber Hintergrund. Die Süße bleibt angenehm, rund, etwas hefig zum Ende. Gut. 8/10/11/10/8/10

Bruin bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is warm en krachtig, licht zoet en licht bitter met iets van rozijnen en pruimen. Er goed bier wat mij betreft. Heeft een wat nootachtige nasmaak.

(Draught at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 27 July 2017) Dark amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with dried fruit, raisins, caramel and vinous aromas of alcohol. Malty, fruity taste with notes of dried fruit, raisins, brown sugar, caramel and a mild spicy bitterness. Full body, quite sweet. Strong and vinous, but fairly well balanced, tasty and warming. Nice one.
