    Wow this was a good one. A sharp alcohol aroma with some caramel going on. The alcohol really hits you on the first sip. The beer isnt too sweet. Its well balanced but maybe a bit thin. In the mold of some the abt/quads Ive had but maybe not quite to that level. Overall a good one!

    Pours with an amber body topped by a thin head with no lacing left behind. It’s slighlty sweet with malty notes, and a touch of sour apple. It seems like it’s trying to be a sour beer but it’s not quite getting there. medium bodied and smooth.

    Poured a hazy amber color with a small, soapy, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of nuts, caramel malts, yeast, and some spices. Taste of caramel malts, green apples, sour cherries, dried fruits, and light alcohol. Creamy mouthfeel.

    330ml bottle. Dark amber color. Large sized white foamy head. Aroma is fruity and sweet with a touch of must and leather. Medium bodied Belgian Strong Ale. Spicy, peppers, banana, clove and coriander. Lively carbonation. Smooth taste. Hides the 9.8% alcohol very well. Very pleasant beer to drink. A slight touch of tartness at the finish. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is crisp and dry. Aftertaste is sweet.
