An unclear red beer with a small fast disappearing head. The aroma is sweet with notes of fruit and berries. The flavor is of fruit, cowberries, and hops. A nice beer.

Amber colour, clear body. Non-homogeneous, slightly brownish head. Little bit lacing. Fruity - citric aroma. The flavour starts bittery and gets bitter. Little bit salty too.

Copper coloured. Not much head. Sweet and somewhat yeasty aroma. Quite sweet and a bit fruity flavour with warming alcohol. Drinkable but I've had better Belgians.

On tap at the White Horse, Parson's Green...dark amber; sweet, very malty; candyish notes. Maybe it was just the change of pace from all those English beers, but I liked it.

Nice amber coloured beer. Good Koninck taste, though i like the original De Koninck more. But maybe it was the mood i was in, which made the Cuvee less good than the original. I might rerate it sometimes.

Rich malty brew with typical Belgian ale estery notes. Slight cidery flavors mixed with hints of licorice and spice. Very smooth, with an alcohol warming in the finish.
