From the brewer

First brewed to celebrate the new millennium, BJ’s Annual Grand Cru has been an annual tradition ever since. This strong Belgian-style ale is brewed with imported Belgian malts and some secret ingredients, resulting in a malty character with a whirlwind of fruit and spice flavors.

Who's been drinking this

XIX release
Biscuity Belgian ale, light yeast character. Pretty noticeable alcohol flavor. A few years ago I had one of these that I thought was undrinkable, but this was different; perfectly pleasant if a bit strong, but not especially remarkable.
XV release
Sickly sweet, like plum wine spiked with clove. Drank like syrup. Normally I find BJ's beers to be inoffensive and drinkable, but this was just gross. It's hard to believe how much they hype this beer up, too.
