750ml bottle via trade with Swolf3, thanks again Steven. poured a hazy yellow, white head. Lemony aroma too it. Citrus acidity in the flavor almost like a fruit beer. Very light tasting for 8.5%, an ok beer.

Aug 1, 2009 Pours a hazy straw-gold into the glass, with an initial 4-finger fizzy head that diminishes to a respectable cap, leaving soapy window-wash lace. A melon-citrus nose, with hints at plantain, and tons of spices. The flavors contain some yeasty sours, melony citrus that concentrates on "limon" (lemon-lime crossbreed), and finishes on pie spices with a hint of alcohol and tiny pine resin. It doesn’t feel quite as complex as I’ve described, with a medium embodiment and soft carbonation that leaves an underdeveloped mouthfeel.... not quite flat, but a tad uninteresting. All-in-all, it has all of the characteristics of a BSA, but top-tier offerings seem to integrate all of the facets a little better.

Jun 15, 2009 750ml from Iron Hill, Media. Pours and smells much like a biere de garde, a bold gold with some amber at the edges. Moderate carbonation, and a very fruity nose. Body is moderate, a bit oily. The taste is bready and a bit washed out, with some light fruits surviving and only a trace of hops. Still, the finish is wicked dry, almost too much so. Not bad, but nothing I’d hunt down again.

Apr 6, 2009 Decent beer. Not as good as the other Belgians they offer. I paid twenty bucks for the bomber and feel it’s a huge rip-off., thus the low rating. If it was half the price, I’d put it about a 3.6 or so.
