3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
UPDATED: MAY 22, 2005 Bottle. Poured golden-orange with a large creamy white head which lasted to the bottom of the glass. Aroma is apricot, citrus and yeast with some spice. Flavor is sweet and fruity with a tart, lingering astringent finish. Medium body and smooth creamy mouthfeel.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Has a nice golden amber color and a fruity smell. Taste is somewhat fruity and finishes with a fizzy alcohol flavor.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
A sweet and smooth beer.
Not much of aroma really, maybe some yeast.
Some bitter finish.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
(draught at The Bishops Arms, Goteborg)
Golden color with a decent, and bubbly, white head. Fruity aroma with notes of berries. Fruity flabvor with a metal-like palate feel. Bitter finish.
2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Extremely citrusy blonde Belgium. Highly carbonated with large bubbles. Tart and acidic with a tangy sour finish. Found it difficult to drink the entire bottle.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
A light, clear golden color. Huge, fluffy, eggshell head. The aroma is rather light and faint. Sweet, predominately fruity with bits of iron surfacing at times. Light and easy to drink. Sweet, slightly spicy and finishes with a dry, hoppy bitterness.
2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pours a hazy yellow with a lot of head. The aroma is interesting, but the flavor is lacking. Tasted remarkably like apple juice until I added the yeast, which added a few flavors, but nothing to write home about. A disappointing Belgian style ale.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Head almost overflowed, golden, yeasty and spicy taste. Finished semi-dry and spicy.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Poured a nice tight head that wasn't overly boisterous. Tried it without the yeast, then immediately topped it off with the yeast - without the yeast it was lacking in the body I love in a Belgian. The color is a nice, cloudy amalgam of gold with a hint of copper. The nose is spicy and a little malty; quite pleasant. The mouth feel is initially soft (for about .25 seconds) then the spice kicks in and it's time to savor the complex flavor dance on the tongue and in the throat. Actually cured me of my heartburn. For what I paid ($1.50) this is a steal.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Gold color with medium white head. Sweet aroma with yeast. Somewhat sweet flavor, some spice, tastes sort of like a tripel light. Soft and easy to drink. But most importantly, my 100th posted rating.
