I dont believe this is an unfiltered beer, but I am seeing a ton of sediment floating around in mine, so I am knocking a few points on the look.

I think this is my frost Belgian Strong Dark Ale and I really enjoyed it. A nice marriage of dark roasty stout flavors and dark fruit and yeasty Belgian flavors. It got better and better as it warmed. yb
