Son arôme doux et velouté nous conduit vers une saveur agréablement houblonnée et boisée.
Elle libère en fond de bouche un goût très fin amer voire fumé et alcoolisé.

33 cl bottle, bought at Selfridge’s, London. Deep amber colour, hazy. Large head. Aroma and flavour are rather alcoholic, with caramel, brown sugar, oak and hints of barnyard. Sweetness is reasonably balanced by the hoppy bitterness, which also has some not-so-desirable metallic edges. Mouthfeel is warming and a bit peppery. An unusual beer, well worth sampling, but DIVINE?? I don’t think so - go for the Trappists in stead, they have better connections "upstairs".

Clear red amber color with small but steady off-white head, lace. Aroma has yeast, sugar, wheat and cinnamon. Flavor is par to aroma: like drinking Grandma’s bakings with alcoholic touch. Full-bodied - drink it slowly -brew.

I have never heard of this beer before. But it was a new Belgian selection at the Sharp Edge in Pittsburgh so I decided to try a draft. The waitress described it as "beer candy" and that description really hit the mark. It poured a light caramel color with a small white head. The aroma was sweet toffee and butterscotch. The flavor was overwhelmingly sweet butterscotch and toffee. The butterscotch lingers. Overall is so thoroughly sweet and candy like that I found the draft hard to finish. Very nice on the first sip, but my rating kept dropping as I got further down the glass.

2013-04-04, bottle at Restobière, Brussels, 7-5-7-4-15=38
Beautiful amber color, dark shade, with creamy head. The aroma shows some banana. Full bodied; the malt and caramel flavor have a pleasant touch of roasted nuts; correct bitterness; it gets drier in the end because of the nuts; it’s also a bit dusty.
Very pleasant.

Beautiful amber color; creamy head. Nice malty aroma, macadamia nuts, turning to be almost fruity (oranges). Good body; front sweetness, balanced by a woody tartness; malty; spices and sweet orange peel. Correctly bitter. Original, a real pleasure!
Earlier Rating: 10/14/2003 Total Score: 4.1
Beautiful red-amber color, with a creamy head. Very nice malt aroma; light wood, coriander, vanilla, sweet orange. Round mouthfeel, with good malt and well balanced by the bitterness, in a crescendo to the end; with a quite strong caramel as well, and a subtle sour note. Le Diable Rouge has chosen a good brewer!

Slight gushing to yellow, creamy head. Deep-amber colour. Nose is alcohol and fruit (in a whiff). Raisins. Reminds me of the nose of German Eisbock, but fruitier. Quite candi-sugar taste (dryness to boot). Spritziness gets some acidity by the carbonation. Walloon metallic tang, completed by some hopbitterness. Flavour of different ripe fruit (apricot, yellow apple, raisins) covered in caramel sauce. Dry, very. Alchol-metallic tang gets second impulse after some time, less pleasing in replay. Remarkable. Has characteristics of several different styles. This seems to become more and more typical for Brasserie Meynsbrughen - de Silly.

The nose reminded me of some sushi I had once - one with deep fried crab meat sticking out of it. Other than that there are some peachy notes. Amber to orange color, good head which clings to the glass. Very full whiskeylike flavors with a nice yeasty fruityness on top of it. Alcohol peeks through a bit at the top. Exits with a light smoky aftertaste
