Served unto a flute (Ommegang signature glass). Bottle labeled 10th Anniversary (2007). Poured Christmas night 2011.

Appearance: A Superior dark ale, comes a opaque black with a dark tan bubbly head. Head comes off 2 fingers but after a sip or 2 you're good to go.

Smell: Obviously chocolate, a smell of wine that is hovering my nostrils like smoke at a barbeque.

Taste: Bitter chocolate, the feel of molasses, and raisins. Beer doesn't come off bitter but perfectly offset balance bitter chocolate.

Mouth: Light Medium carbonation which looks heavier than what it really is. Looks Heavy carbonation but feels very easy to drink.

Overall: Incredibly finished and not hard to "indulge" in, you don't need to be a heavy beer drinker or some crazy connoisseur to love this beer. Cheers to all and Merry Christmas!

Split bottle with a buddy after hauling a freaking huge patio umbrella home.

A - Black pour with a brown fizzy foam. Lacing is in thin rings on the glass.

S - Scents of plums, chocolate and licorice.

T - Flavor ranges from sweet chocolate, to tangy berries and yeast, and some mocha notes.

M - Very drinkable. Some carbonation. For a Belgian dark it is very sessionable.

O - Impressed. I got this as part of a gift pack and I'd grab this again.

Poured into an Ommegang flute glass. Pours a very dark brown, appearing black in the glass. Has a two finger fine tan head with great retention and pillowy lacing. Aroma dominated by chocolate with slight hints of toasted malt. Flavor of dark toasted malt, chocolate with light hints of dark fruit. Finishes with dry toasted malt and chocolate. Medium bodied. Fairly two dimensional malt and chocolate, but these two flavors are great together and I greatly enjoyed drinking this. Better flavor than expected at the ABV.
