L: dark brown; hints of haze when looking through the light; no head but a thin ring of foam around the glass perimeter
S: light aroma of the typical Belgian yeast; hints of grapes; possibly other dark fruit like raisins but not very much
T: grapes, raisins, typical Belgian yeast esther; not overly sweet like a Tripel; tart but not like a sour; slight alcohol presence
M: light to medium body; medium carbonation
O: typical Belgian ale but one of the least offensive Belgians I've had





Strong Belgian ale with a nice spiced taste. Definitely reminds of a nice winter drink. Very smooth with not much of a hint of the 10% ABV. Not the best St. Bernardus but worth a try.





A- to B+. Very complex Belgian style, not real sweet or dry, has spicy flavor, malty aroma and no hot alcohol aroma or taste.





I don't know...it's pours with tons of head. Tastes like a decent ale. I think it's average
