Pours a pale yellow with a really big white head with monster bubbles and nice lacing. Aroma is very yeasty, some banana, some citrus, apple, and a hint of alcohol. Tastes very yeasty as well with a prodomonent banana flavor, other soft fruits show through as well as apple. Finishes with a funny metallic bitterness that I’m not entirly fond of, but overall this is a nice beer.

Beautiful gold color with a massive rocky head that leaves great big clumps of lacing on the glass. Nose of apples and grapes. Tart, fruity taste with a slight chalkiness on the palate. Sweet finish that’s reminiscent of white wine.

blonde copper with huge head, dark malt and slight honey in the aroma along with the standard belgian wit spices.

A golden ale with huge solid floaties which actually plop in the glass, and a thick onctuous off white head. Aroma is of candy sugar, citrus, orange peels, coriander and light Brett. In mouth, a classy crisp and sweetish malt with coriander, curacao, caramel, and warming alcohol. Exceptional. Bottled 01/08/07

Nice deep golden, cloudy beer with a creamy and stable white head. Pleasant nose with spicy cinnamon&vanilla , fine citrus perfumes, coriander, some hop. Smooth mouthfeel with a lively carbonation. Taste of caramel and sourish yeast, citruses, coriander and nice spices. Sweet but hoppy in the finish, smooth aftertaste.
