De Dolle Oerbier:
Belgian delight. Very rich and dark and lovely. If you are a fan of Belgian strong ales like Chimay, this will intrigue you. Rich fruity flavors and a bit of caramel sweetness make this Oerbier a nice dessert beer or possibly a sipper to accompany a nice cheese. I would imagine that after one or two of these puppies, judgment could fog over and Oerbier could be considered "easy-drinking" but one may be enough before moving on to something a little tamer.

De Dolle Oerbier is flavorful-- perhaps a little flamboyant -- but not terribly extreme.  Malty and full-bodied, the warming boozy feeling hits you in the belly, not the tongue.  The sweetness of candi sugar and malty goodness give Oerbier a signature Belgian flare.  And 9% abv is enough to warrant a warning:  Take your time and sip this brew!  But the flavors alone are complex enough to command respect.  I'm kinda getting a cherry vanilla vibe with some oaky hints.  Mellow and yet vibrant.  Really nice all-around Belgian brew.
