The aroma seems promising with a promise of spices and pepper but the flavor seems more subdued, dry, with some malt, a few hidden bitter grapefruity tones which almost seem like salt and pepper. I’m guessing this beer is either an acquired taste or too light for my likes. Big head and easy to drink with well hidden alcohol.

Bottle. Thick massive head. Took quite awhile to set in. Aroma has fruits, yeast and some spices. Refreshing easy to drink, nice yeasty finish with some spices and bite from the alcohol. Overall really good.

12oz bottle as part of gift pack from LCBO for Christmas 2007. Best before of May 2009. Pours a perfect cloudy gold with a big fluffy head. Lots of little bubbles going up the side of the glass. Nice yeasty aroma. Flavour is a bit light bodied. Yeasty, a little spicy. Decent, but not the best of its ilk.

pours hazy gold/yellow with a huge white head. Aroma of belgian yeast, light fruit and a bit of spice. Taste is pretty much the same with a bit of alchohol at the end. Not bad.

Beer pours a clear golden with a big white foamy head that last’s forever. Nice lacing on this one. Very spicy aroma, a little citrus, some good malt smell in there too. Tastes really nice. That spiciness continues with a good bit of malt flavor. Alcohol is not really apparent and the finish is nice and clean. This is a really nice beer.
