Pour is a light yellow to orange color with a large bubbly white head. Aroma is mostly dominated by cloves and some light fruits, similar to a tripel. Taste is more sweet than a tripel would be, though still has a corriander and clove kick to it.

750ml bottle, February 2010. Bubbly gold with a slightly off white head. Belgian yeast, light farmhouse funk, some cheese (almost baby bell like), some chardonnay, mild citrus. Quite frothy/carbonated, very light but nice body, creamy but like a mouse, farmhouse and straw, very slight tart, bit of bitterness but becomes more sweet and almost fantome like, very nice famhouse finish, leaves straw, some barnyard, grass, floral, and a bit of fruit.

4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Mora2000 (2953) - Dallas, Texas, USA - NOV 6, 2011
Drank back in June to celebrate the Mavericks winning the NBA title. The bottle is labeled February 2010.
The beer pours a golden color with a large white head. The aroma is very nice. I get a lot of leathery brett notes, as well as some light funk and Belgian yeast. There is also a nice fruit component of lemons and apricots.
The flavor is very dry. I get a lot of brett and leather, with some orange mixed in. The Belgian yeast comes through nicely, as do some pepper and coriander notes. There is some light funk and some light tartness.
Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
4.2 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 nbondi (182) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - NOV 1, 2011
Pale hazy yellow with beautiful thick and foamy white head. Decadent nose of Belgian yeast with bright lemongrass, clove, confectioners sugar and banana. Medium-light body with good, lively carbonation. Taste falls a bit flat. None of the fireworks that are in the nose. Lemon creme pie with quick dry finish. Light, refreshing, well balanced flavors are excellent, but don’t match luxuriousness of the nose. Very good.

Pours a clear light golden color. Aroma is of yeast, spice, citrus, and clove. Flavor is similar to that typical belgian yeast with a little more citrus present. Lemon zest and orange peel seems to account for that. Spices and cloves are in the background. More of a champagne beer. Good for special occasions.

Draft. Pours golden orange with a white head. Fruity citrus aroma with some light tartness. The flavor has a gentle tartness, with earthy notes, some fruity citric notes, and some light funky notes. Well balanced and well put together. Solid.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 DeputyAndy (465) - Ambler, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 29, 2011
Bottle. Pours a really hazy pale straw with lots of head. Smell is very funky. Barnyard smells mix with light grape flavors. Taste is dry and more funky than tart. Almost a powdery dry presence enhances the flavors. Nice and dry.
