Product Information:

This is a belgian dark strong ale with a complex malty sweetness. Pours a very dark copper brown color with a huge, dense, tan-colored head, with aromas of dark cherries. It has malty, dry flavor with almost no hop bitterness for a beer of this strength. High carbonation helps to add to the smooth mouthfeel. At 9% abv, this is a dark, very rich, complex, Belgian ale. One of the best examples of a Belgian dark strong ale. The 2nd fermentation in the bottle gives this beer a fuller, smoother character. An array of caramelized fruit gives way to a slight yeastiness. Cellaring for several years will maximize its enjoyment.
