Pours cloudy gold with a medium white head. Aroma is Belgian yeast, grass and bourbon. Taste is sweet with with very trace amounts of bitters, the bourbon seems to have rounded it off. I really enjoy that the bourbon is present but not overpowering. Medium bodied with a smooth texture.

Oh my god this is good. Pours a honey yellowed hued with a big white tight head that hangs. Bourbon Bourbon oak. Rich caramels. Awesome. Really good beer . 11% ABV but drinks like a 7 or 8. Hops are there but earthy English if any. Bitterness-not really. Great carbonation. Very nice. really GOOD beer very well balanced, that is unfortunately not available anywhere near me.. So upset.

Similar to Allagash’s Yakuza Belgian triple, but far better. Pale, clear yellow, mild aroma. A mildly fruity start finishes with a big, vanilla/bourbon finish that makes it both smoother and stronger than the Yakuza. I really enjoyed it.

This beer has complex spicy aroma. A white color gives it a beautiful look. It has a sweet complex fruity flavor. Very well put together.

A very, very good beer. Pours a nice slightly cloudy golden color, a little boring. Smells strawberries and wine. Taste is great, sweet, a little of the bourbon comes through. Nice refreshing aftertaste. Had on tap at noc noc.

Rich and sweet with generous spices, potent bourbon barrel flavor balances the richness, low hops.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 DeliveryDriver (103) - Illinois, USA - FEB 10, 2013
Pours a very hazy, golden color with a decent sized white head. This beer is very livey. The yeast is very prominent in the nose, as I get mostly aromas of banana bread and dark fruits. There is also a bit of the bourbon noticable, but not overbearing. Very heavy bodied beer, and the yeast flavor sticks to your mouth. Not overly sweet, and there is a bit of the bourbon burn on the back of the tongue. I found this to be an excellent representation of the style.

A nice foam head that dissipates in my glass. The scent has yeast, fruits, and a slight sweet bourbon smell. I taste oak, yeast, citrus, sugar, and a mild bourbon flavor. There is some carbonation that affects the taste. The finish is pleasant with a dryness that fades. Overall this is a tasty brew.
