From 2019 - ruddy reddish brown pour - brown sugar, raisins, prunes and a sweet boozy kick. Yeah this is hot but fruity and sweet and tasty.

Hilariously strong, very expensive, and yet somehow worth it. Sip slow, or this one will knock you over. Very figgy and sweet, yet not sickeningly syrupy.

Musty, lightly sweet, bready aroma. Smooth, nice mouthfeel, pleasantly sweet, white grapes, sultanas, brown sugar. Aftertaste is a little bitter.🤔

Raisins and brown sugar definitely make this taste like life. Very yummy and easy to drink for the abv. As it got to room temp it started getting squirrely/odd/all over the place

Aged since fall 2019. Extremely strong, complex flavor, with a more distinct "raisin" flavor than when I first tried it years ago.

Strong boozy brown ale. Dark fruit upfront with a light mouthfeel for a Belgian. More prune that raisin. Not what I would call sweet, dark caramel notes that don’t last but half a sip. Aftertaste is overpowered by alcohol.

The high alcohol is slightly off putting. It’s like doing a shot of beer (like utopia). Will let this warm up a bit to reevaluate.

Most assuredly a sweet boozy nose to this with plenty of raisins. The taste is an absolute delight. Still the same boozy body but there is a lot of sugary stuff going on. Wished it sticks around longer but the nearly wine-taste is quite good. DF can do m
