(Bottle 33 cl) Beautiful, clear, orangey brown close to mahogany. Nice and lasting beige head. Aroma of roasted malt and alcohol. A fairly solid and vinous body with some notes of dried fruit and lots of roasted malt and some port. Dry, lightly hoppy finish. Quite delicate really. 041106

2009-10-17, draught at Spuyten Duyvil, New York, 5-5-6-3-11=30
Hazy dark amber color; creamy head. It smells a bit of old tap, and yeast. It’s too much carbonated, caramel flavor, a bit woody; the final bitterness is too much for a Belgian Ale. It seems that this beer has suffered.

Dark brown color; thin head. The aroma is malty, with caramel and malt fruitness. The taste has some caramel and a lot of candi sugar, light cookies; the mouthfeel is too thin. Not bad, but they should use more malt and less candi.

A red-brown beer with a small disappearing head. The aroma is sweet with notes of roasted bread, caramel, prunes, and hints of sourness. The flavor is very sweet malty with alcohol notes combined with roasted bread and prunes. A nice beer.

Dark brown with slight haze (cold -?); dark crème head, slowly disappearing. Chocolate malt, roasted and herbal, and also very lightly lactic nose, like yoghurt. Taste: OHOH - what is this? Is this Rochefort 7, maybe? Pear drops, roasted malts and sweet malts, vinous and 'speculoos', all is there. Very well bodied without being really heavy. Slight oily mouthfeel. Some alchohol, hidden. Listen. If I were to say this ain't good, then I'd be the King of Hypocrites. I love Rochefort; don't we all? But, OTOH, it is a bit copycat, even when in the sweet direction...
