Ommegang Adoration Ale. Cooperstown, NY. Belgian Strong Dark Ale. 10% ABV.
Served chilled from a 12 oz bottle and poured into a snifter. Pours a purple-brown color with a thin tan laced head. Smells are of dark fruits, alcohol and yeast. Carbonation is moderate with a medium to full body. Taste is sweet and yeasty, with hints of figs, molasses and raisins. Aftertaste is alcoholic and spicy.
Overall a pretty solid beer from Ommegang. A strong Belgian dark that I would buy again. I prefer many other Christmas beers over this but still quite good.
88/100
$2.69/12 oz bottle
