Golden orange pour with thick white head. Aroma is fruity and estery with lots of citrus, mango, banana. Flavor is fruity, distinct bitterness. Banana, orange, mango, Some mild sweetness. Mouthfeel is chalky, which is odd for a belgian. Otherwise, pretty nice. Lots of carbonation. Certainly decent. Pretty nice.

Draft at Fountainhead. Pours a fairly attractive pale orange/gold with a fluffy head into the chalice. Nose is yeasty. Marmalade notes and bread. Some light phenolic notes as well. Has a nice caramel and orange character in the taste. Quality body that is nicely effervescent. Pretty tasty beer.

fear025 (212) - Illinois, USA - OCT 25, 2010
On tap at the Bavarian Lodge in Lisle, IL. Aroma:Flowery lavender aromas. Appearance:Cloudy and blonde. Nice head with fine bubbles. Taste:Some muted spice, citrus, and nutty flavors. A little sourness on the foretaste. Some lavender flavors in the aftertaste remind me of old lady soap. Palate:Medium body, nice carbonation, very smooth. Overall:This is a rather subtle beer with complex hidden flavors. It’s easy drinking and quite sessionable.

patrick767 (2772) - fort wayne, Indiana, USA - SEP 29, 2010
bottle - Pours hazy orange-yellow with a big, off-white head. It has a yeasty, malt rich aroma. The flavor is sweet with banana and spice notes and the carbonation is lively on the palate. It’s alright but there’s some underwhelming about it as far as Belgian brews go.

hotstuff (3213) - Indiana, USA - SEP 18, 2010
Bottle. Poured a large white frothy, fizzy head that mostly diminished, mostly transparent with a slight haziness, spotty lacing, and a yellow-gold hue. The aroma was yeasty, floral, sweet, fruity, hint of coriander, and spicy. The flavor was sweet, floral, fruity, spicy, and a slightly dry finish. The mouthfeel was tingly and this is a medium bodied beer. An easy to drink beer and a decent thirst quencher.
