[1] Review by changeup45 from Florida, USA who has tried this beer once. (8/23/2008 9:29:36 PM)
"Pours a hazy reddish-brown color, some floaties, with a lasting frothy head which produces some nice lacing. Aroma is tart cherries, yeast and darker fruits, such as plums. Nice carbonation. The flavor is fruity, apples, cherries, plums and grapes that are both sweet and tart. As expected there's a nice dose of yeast in the flavor with some brown sugary notes as well. Well-rounded taste. Finishes a bit puckery with light bitterness. Good beer. "

[3] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer a couple times. (4/20/2008 11:37:33 AM)
"Hazy reddish brown with a sticky tan-coloured foam. Sweet and flowery aroma of nuts, caramel, Seville oranges and dense yeast in the deep aroma. Full, malty and flowery flavour of yeast, caramel, heather, light chocolate, leaves and sweet oranges. Long sweet and a bit sticky finish of caramel, light chocolate, honey and flowers. Tasty stuff!"

"Another fine brew served up by the Brasserie de l'Abbaye des Rocs
Aroma: The aroma is very bready with some malt, figs, and plums
Appearance: The beer pours a hazy reddish brown with an off-white head that lingers for a while.
Mouthfeel: The mouthfeel is full-bodied, creamy with good carbonation
Flavour: The flavour has a malt background with some yeasty and fruity hints that make a great complex brew
Overall: An amazing beer I highly recommend"
