UPDATED: JAN 8, 2022 Taste: dark fruits of plumbs, currants, some sweet, , dry, spiced notes, figs, nutmeg toffee some other dry spices. Same with the nose. Dark brown hue, clear, tan head, with rings of lace. Medium to med/light body.Stone fruits, and holiday spices.

UPDATED: JAN 8, 2022 Pours medium brown with a bit of red and a very large head as you would expect from a Belgian ale. The head doesn't build from beneath and overflow the glass the ways some do, but instead it craters nicely leaving lacing down the sides of the glass. Aroma has some dark fruit and, oddly, a bit of lager aroma. Flavor is sweet with rich and thick malts with cherry, other fruit and honey. No real notice of the high ABV in the flavor other than the fact that this beer is very thick, right, and heavy.

UPDATED: JAN 4, 2022 Appearance: cloudy brown with a moderate off-white frothy head of medium retention. Aroma: dried fruit, toast, apricots, peaches, higher spirits. Taste: light sweet and bitter, complex. Good Belgian yeast, esters, dried figs and dates. Hop. Mouth feel: medium body, average carbonation. Overall: nice balance. High class.

UPDATED: DEC 26, 2021 Big and fruity, full of date and fig and brandied cherries, backed by vanilla, clove, brown sugar, and a little woodiness. Finishes dry and spicy. Very, very Belgian. Nice pint.

UPDATED: DEC 25, 2021 It pours a reddish brown with a huge tan head. It has the aroma of leather, wet leaves. fig. raisin, ripe fruit & spices. I taste spiced fruit, & leather with a wonderful velvety texture. I think this may be my new favorite Christmas seasonal.

UPDATED: DEC 25, 2021 Burgundy pour. Thin foam. Banana flavor with new plastic palate. No carbonation.

UPDATED: DEC 13, 2021 Fles. Vol van smaak, iets te zoet, maar bitter in afdronk. Aroma mout en licht alcohol. Heel goed de alcohol de smaak niet overheerst (en dat bij 10%). Licht tintelend; graan in smaak en kruiden. Beetje vreemd te klasseren bier, maar wel prima
