12oz : tulip

Pours nearly black, with deep amber highlights. The head is off-white, and starts out quite fizzy, and foaming into a thick, craggy, billowy head. Then dissipates to a creamy, half-inch foam across the glass. Light lacing.

Belgian yeast and candi sugar. Dark malts.

Subtle notes of dark fruit, cocoa, light roast and candi sugar blend nicely.

Medium, smooth body, low carbonation.

An enjoyable beer, the ABV is quite well hidden, even with the subtle, yet complex flavor profile.

Serving type: bottle

A - Pours a dark raison color (mahogany/burgundy color) with a thin even, creamy layer of toffee colored foam.

A - Raisons, figs, Belgian spice, red grapes, light pepper, slightly bready.

T - Belgian spice, pepper, cloves, plums, cherries, earthy, slightly musty, red grape skins, figs. All the flavors are balanced throughout and the alcohol is completely masked which makes it deceptive.

M - Light medium body with silky light carbonation and lip smacking sticky.

O - Unibroue is a solid brewery and IMO dos a fine job.
