4 of 5

Tasted 9 months after brewing, 8 months after bottling. Was a little on the sweet caramel side, but a damn good brew. I would have been happy if I had purchased this beer for $12 a six pack, though it wasn't quite the super premium Belgian I wanted to hit. Brewing an updated version now with homemade candi syrup from date sugar, expecting it to be ready for holiday 2017.
