Style: Belgian Strong Ale

Serve in Trappist glass, Tulip, Tumbler

Aroma is a sweet cider like scent. Color is a deep golden with good carbonation and almost no head, there is just a thin ring around the edge. Taste is thin and winy. Starting with a light/medium body that goes down crisp with a wine like sweetness come in then there is a sour twang that leads into a bold alcohol feel. A bitterness come out as the alcohol taste fades. There is something just not right about this brew, there is almost no Belgian yeast taste, but there is an odd sourness and the alcohol is to prevalent on the end. Its just not a good Belgian-Style Ale.

22oz bottle. Aroma has lots of sweet honey malt and dry, spicy yeast. Pours full, bright gold with a fizzy white head. Lots os surag and honey sweetness initially on the tongue. Dry and slightly spicy yeast. Some grassy hops and a hint of chocolate. Medium bodied. Slightly sticky. More sweet than dry. Finishes with a lingering yeasty dryness.

Bottle. Clear golden pour with solid white head. Aroma is fruity with some spice. Medium carbonation, otherwise smooth body. Flavor is fruity with some spice. Hints of alcohol but fairly smooth.

UPDATED: FEB 7, 2012 Been a while since I’ve had this one, and I recall it being imbalanced and trending towards cloying malt sweetness. Thankfully, this bottle is quite different and combines a very lively champagne fizz with the dry quality of a fine blond and the fruits of a tripel. Nicely hopped to boot and with a substantial body. A good one.

Nice clear golden color with nice white head.Aromas of fresh fruit and yeast. Slight carbonation on the palate.Sweetness of fruit on the palate with smooth finish. Not overly complex or sweet. Not bad beer.

Pours nice and nice color. Good head and tastes well initially,but to sour for me as an aftertaste

boozy as fuck. pale golden brown. smells like booze and spice. tastes like booze and sweet water

UPDATED: JUN 12, 2008 Pours a hazy orange with a medium-sized white head with light lacing. Nose is of spice , yeast, and fruit. Taste is similar to the aroma with fruit and spices. Additionally, there is a good bit of sweetness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with moderate carbonation.
