750 ml bottle best before sometime in 2013. I tossed the bottle after glancing at the date. Thumbs up for a clearly printed best before date. Poured into a Trappist chalice glass.

Deep dark yet see through(gets a lot murkier the further down the bottle you get) ruby red/brown when up to the light otherwise it is black. Thin beige head that fizzles down even smaller rather quickly.

Smells of cherries, dark fruits, sweet caramel, spice, some alcohol and funk. The fruity cherry element seems to pop out a lot more.

First off the alcohol is well hidden and when it rears its head when warmed up goes along with the flavor so good. Cherry and dark fruit for the most part. Slightly sweet and chocolatey. Great little bready character in the aftertaste.

There is not much of a head on this thing yet you can still feel a good amount of carbonation on the tongue. Lighter body on this compared to other dark Belgian brews. Dry.

Such an easy drinker. Wow. The drinkability is insane on this. The subtle complexity of this beer makes it so good.
