On bottle best before date: 03-16-09. Consumed July 2006. Murky brown color with explosive tan head. Bubbled right out of bottle before I could even begin to pour. Aroma of sugar, yeast and maybe lime. Massive carbonation upon opening but now not so much. It is just about right. Flavor is sweet sugar, coriander, a bit of cinnamon, plums and raisins.

Beautiful black brown pour with swirling hypnotizing action. Gunk on the bottom of this unfiltered brew. Attractive off sweetish aroma, but clean and fresh. Ooooh, this stuff is smooth yet powerful. Really numbs up the taste buds with pleasure. You would never think of it as 10%, this is more like the flavor that was as low as 6%. Smooth and sly, sneaks the alky into you as if was a wheat or dunkleweizen. I bought this thinking it was wheat, well now I see it’s a strong ale. Medium to strong whisky and fruit background. Or is that wine soaked plums or bing cherries? Good creamy carbonation for a low level tingle. Finish is strangely middle of the tongue associated with alky bitter bite, it hangs for a while. Not impressed.

Dark tan head, nice laceing hanging on. Beautiful clear amber color with ruby highlights. Fruity spicey nose , some alc. also. Body is med/full , nice mouthfeel, carbonation is a little high. Fruity , yeasty , earthy notes, some cinnamon, vanilla, lots going on. Finish is dry and fruity. Need to lay some down.

I haven't had their Maudite in a while, but after reading that review, I am still noticing that "Blue Moon" taste. Like a wheat/citrusy combo that crosses between most of their brews that I sampled. This is rather complex...reading "brown rum" in the description which could be adding to this toasty/citrus flavors I am tasting. Also some sweet and tart fruits, yeast, and spices. Murky darker brown appearance with a thin white head that quickly dissipates. Carbonation on the heavier side, but not quite a bubbly beer. Not as much chocolate malt here as the Maudite, as this represents more of an Imperial Brown/Belgian Ale. Doesn't quite stand out as elite, but I wouldn't hesitate to try again.

Pours a deep, opaque brown with a thick and rich head. Aroma is nice, unusual, very fruity, more like that of a cider. Very pleasing flavor has strong pear overtones, is mostly malty with some smoky hints.

I don't know why the other Canadian brewers can't make a good beer. This is my fourth style of Unibroue and each of them is absolutely outstanding. This one is very dark brown in color and full of complex rich sweet malt.

Pours a semi-clear copper color with a massive head that goes down fairly quick. Nice amount of carbonation, lots of little bubbles in the glass. Aroma is full of sour fruits and yeast with a nice wine kick to it. Taste is very interesting for a BSA, first thing you notice is a roasted brown sugar kick (Think beef jerky). Also to note is the nice bready feeling to the beer. Very smooth. You can feel the burn with this one after a while. Overall a very nice BSA.

Poured a thick 1/2" foamy light brown head. Has a dark brown almond colour. Nicely carbonated and ok lacing. Aromas of light malts and hints of vanilla. Flavours of strong roasted malts and mild chocolate like flavours as well. Somewhat bitter. Still goes down nicely, does not seem like a beer of 9% abv. Good stuff.
