Got this on sale at Randall's North County. 4-pack cans. $7.00 "Canned on 3/10/16"
Nice appearance: what I expect for a Belgian Dark Strong.
Great aroma: alcohol and dark fruits
Nice mouthfeel.
Taste: Like any good dark strong it has a nice Belgian yeast flavor, including dark fruits, with a bit of extra sweetness. Very smooth and well balanced.
Overall a great beer. I am surprised this beer is not more highly rated. Perhaps, because it has benefited from aging: it has nearly 18 months of age on it. Too bad it is discontinued.

Pours a very effervescent & chill-hazed dirty brown. Viscous look, zero head retention & lacing
S: Slight brown sugar & booze
T: Brown sugar & salt & dryness up front, a little Brown Bread with faint earthy yeastyness with a little mushroom thrown in. Brown sugar, salt & dryness as this warms. Finishes salty with caramel & a little brown sugar
MF: Medium body, fairly firm carbonation
An interesting beer, just doesn't quite deliver. ABV is well hidden. Worth a try, but nothing world changing here

Really not very dark overall, and the flavor was just not there. Belgian yeast was only perceptible for the first few sips, and an overall artificial taste really seemed to interfere with the flavors of malt and yeast.

Amber in color with a fingernail of beige around the rim. Aroma is of sweet brown sugar and caramel. I taste dark malt, brown sugar, caramel, and salt. The mouth is lightly chewy.
