Brewer's Description: "Horny Devil (formerly known as Belgian Strong Ale) is inspired by the curious beers produced by Trappist monks in monasteries across Belgium. The beer's dryness and strength are the result of a unique Trappist yeast strain in a warm fermentation. These attributes are subtly masked by the restrained use of premium low-alpha hop varieties. The malt flavors and fruity esters produced during fermentation create the initial impression, while authentic Belgian Candi sugar and fresh coriander add complexity to the palate."

Don't get me wrong, it's a really good beer, but you can get better for cheaper (see Affligem or Bosteels). Unlike Jason, I thought the alcohol was the dominant taste. Fairly sweet with a bit of coriander coming through. Almost no head and a fantastic amber color. If this was a few bucks cheaper it would get a 5.

It has low carbonation and has a very yeasty start with coriander and candy sugar. Finish is dry with some malt taste. Alcohol is pretty well hidden considering.. Pretty decent and will get you looooaaaaded...
