[1] Review by jlozier from Lone Pine, CA, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (7/27/2008 9:25:13 PM)
"I thought I had reviewed this one already, but apparently not. I really enjoy the products from this brewery, despite the steep prices i often run into. Smells very yeasty, with some hints of alcohol. Tastes of chocolate, raisins, some (very) light spices. Dark, chocolate colored, with a tan, sudsy head that bubbles up and settles back down rather quickly. Very tinglingly mouthfeel. A good beer, but not worth the price; apparently, I was charged too much for it anyway. "

[2] Review by Cybercat from Atlanta, GA, USA who has tried this beer once. (6/13/2008 9:50:30 PM)
"This one pours a rich, almost opaque chocolaty brown. Aroma is strong and malty and just a touch sweet. Flavor is rich, remarkably sweet but not cloying, strongly malty with hints of fruit and butterscotch and a nutty trace. There is just a tiny hit of hop bitterness. Very smooth and pleasant to sip."

[3] Review by thomassova4 from MD, USA who has tried this beer once. (5/3/2008 7:02:36 PM)
"This beer was nice. It had a thinner mouthfeel than a traditional Belgium beer, however, it was tasty nonetheless. I would also note that the carbonation in the beer was more like what you would find in a soda than in a beer. It was good."

[4] Review by Phishpond417 from Madtown, Wisc, USA who has tried this beer once. (4/11/2008 6:12:23 PM)
"This beer pours a dark, yet translucent copper colour with a little bit of noticeable sediment floating around- no problemo however. Plenty of carbonation- nice frothy whip cram like vanilla coloured head. Lacing is decent and is hesitant to disperse. Aroma is like of grapenuts and sort of alcoholy/grainy like notes. Soft toffee and cinnamon. Taste is very light, lighter then i expected in fact. Carmel apples, white chocolate, doughnuts and some roasted java."

[5] Review by mdsmith from Baltimore, MD, USA who has tried this beer once. (11/5/2007 9:00:28 PM)
"Very smooth beer. Cherry and malty in flavor, with enough alcohol to warm the belly. I found this to be very easy to drink and am looking forward to having it again soon."
