Commercial Description:
This cross-cultural brew was first made at the request of an Irish musical group and was named "Celtic Heaven," but soon became a permanent part of the Serafijn lineup. Similar to a light Irish ale, but but with the intriguing of a spicy, almost perfumed aroma that comes not from spices but from a special Belgian yeast.

Bottle at home. Hazy amber with a large head. Aroma moderate/heavy malty (spicy), light yeasty. Flavor moderate sweet and sour. Light body despite the strength. Fine but a little to spicy.

750 ml bottle from John’s Market in Portland, OR. Dark coppery amber color with a frothy off-white head. Interesting lightly spicy aroma with a little caramel and hop. Near medium body with coarse carbonation. Flavor is spicy, a bit citrus/coriander, dark caramel, and little hop. Finishes rather herby/woody. Almost dusty. Dry. Pleasant to drink. Not the common Belgian ale.

Bottle. Pours hazy red amber with a lot of sediment and a rocky head that almost disappeared. Sweet nose. Tastes way too sweet and somewhat alcoholic. A big disappointment.

A clear ashy light brown ale with a thick off white head. A sweet yeasty aroma , with fusel alcohol, very aromatic, a bit doughy. In mouth, a lightly sweet doughy malt with light coriander, a bit buttery, thus the celtic angel name. Medium bodied. Bieropholie imports.

[1194-20080304] 330mL. Sweet dark woody hay aroma with yeasty green leaves. Clear, amber brown body with a long-lasting foamy off-white head. Sweet heavy yeast flavour. Medium-full body. Interesting and mild.
