lightly hazy golden amber with big lacing smaller white head with big bubbles... spicy malty peppery aroma, not many notes of belgian yeast or candi sugars, the flavor follows suit though fruits indicitive of belgian yeast shine through a quite spicy medium body... quite lively, dry finish, quite drinkable for a dubble...

Bottle from Sam’s. Always nice to come across an old favorite that I never got around to rating. This isn’t one that’s quite as good as remembered. Pours a lovely hazy amber reddish-brow with a beige head and nice lacing. Nose shows raisins, plumbs, some bread, Belgian sugar and a great yeast profile. Taste comes through a bit thin, though. Soft palate.

Pours an opaque amber/ruby color with a medium lt tan head...decent lacing and retention. Aroma is fruity with light spicy notes...mild clove...wheaty and subtle bubblegummy notes. Flavor is earthy and wheaty with mild fruitiness and spice...a bit muddled...I’m not a fan of the yeasty maybe? Mouthfeel is medium and the finish is slightly hoppy and earthy/dry.
