RedSox2004 (353), Pacific Palisades, California, USA Sep 12, 2009 Pours clody orange brown with a generous vanilla-colored head and very nice lacing. Bananas, yast, clove, and pepper in the aroma. Complex flavor profile includes bananas, figs, spicescaramel, yeast and sweetish malts. Effervescent carbonation, medium body and a clean aftertaste tat features a residual sweet maltiness. Very good, but not up to the hype. jeremytoni (1069), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA Sep 12, 2009 Batch two from a bottle poured brown with a small head. Nice strong sweet malty flavor with a lingering finish. popery (132), San Francisco, California, USA Sep 5, 2009 Having heard the back story on this beer, I was quite curious to try it. I can’t say that it wowed me, but it’s an interesting combination of styles from two distinctive and excellent breweries. Ultimately, my opinion is simply that each brewery does a better job on their own than in collaboration. This beer pours a lighter than expected though still quite dark golden brown color. The aroma is of nectarines and earthy yeast. The flavor is quite fruity but doesn’t pack enough depth for me to really enjoy it. The caramel malt character is good as is the blending of yeast flavors. The flavors just come out a bit too close to a bubblegummy weizenbock for my taste in Belgian ales. The feel is strong and drinkability is pretty good. plovmand (1590), Helsinge, Denmark Sep 4, 2009 Bottle. Hazy amber body with a medium off white head. Fruity and quite spicy aroma with notes of yeast and caramel. Flavour is spicy and malty with light yeast. Medium bodied.
