6.6/10 — Appearance 4 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 6.5
Bottle from Bottle Baron. Hazy ruby/brown body with a lots of yeast chunks floating around below a thin off-white head. Lively carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of fig, red apple, nuts and peach. Flavour of toffee, red wine and raspberry syrup. Medium body with a sticky mouthfeel. Light fizz. The alcohol is well hidden but it does not drink easily.

9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 9 Flavor 9 Texture 10 Overall 9

Old rating. Best before 16/10/2012. 9.5%. Geruch nach Pflaumen und süßen reifen Kirschen. Der Antrunk ist vollmundig malzig, süßlich mit angenehmer Kräuter-Note. Dabei sind die dunklen Früchte deutlich präsent. Schön ausgewogen mild-weich-caramellig-mild. Schokoladenpudding. Der Nachgeschmack ist toll weich, mild, schoko-süßlich und dabei ganz leicht herb. Ein Traum! Geht in die Richtung eines Rochefort 10.

Brown color with tan head. Aroma is caramel and brown sugar, very belgian. Taste is also caramel and brown sugar, but nicely balanced. A nice winter brew, albeit very sweet. High but fine-bubbled carbonation.

Bottle. A spicy Belgian strong as you would expect it, but with a good quality. Fine but heavily carbonized, making it surprisingly well-drinkable.

Flaska från Beernavigator. Mörkt mahognyfärgad med lågt skum mycket jästpartiklar. Doft öppnar inte riktigt upp sig muscovado, alkoholvärme och torkad frukt. Småbubblig i munnen, söt med en koncentrerad och lite eldig smakbild. Cognac, torkade päron, katrinplommon och fikon, brända mandlar. Riktigt gott.
