25 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow to orange with a slowly collapsing off-white head. Dense malty aroma towards fruity. Flavour is mild yeasty which I assume provide the almost Belgian fruit esters to an alcohol dense and quite malt based beer. Solid warmth in the finish from the alcohol.

Sampled at Cellars Wine & Spirits in St Paul, Minnesota. Pours a semi-hazy orange amber brew (with particles) with an average sized off-white head that has some nice retention and some good lacing. Aroma of a heavy chardonnay white wine, some caramel malt, flowery hops and light pear fruit. Taste is full bodied, thick, fruity with flavors of sweet caramel, pears and a whopping alcohol burn. Finish is metallic from the high alcohol presence that over-powers some of the fruity and Belgian yeast flavors.

[Bottle, rated blind] Pours clear orange with a tiny off-white head. Sweet aroma--a little fruit, but mainly just a lot of malt and some alcohol. Taste is sweet and malty with a good deal of alcohol burn. Medium-thin with a long finish. I really despise sweet, malty alcohol bombs like this.

(FRANCE) This Belgian style brew is courtesy of fellow knight The_Captain, thx. Hazy orange / amber color with a med-white head. The aroma is of fruits and spices with a slight tart / alcohol feel.,But the 13% is well hidden !!! Great label, and the best beer from france for me so far. Will drink again !!

Bottle - 3 pack. Shared this with beergestapo in the Devonshire. Poured a slight hazy amber gold with a white head. Some aroma of white grapes similar to a wine. Pallet was smooth with a bit of sweetness, malts and very much a Belgian in character. Although 13% it was relatively mild and drinkable. Liked this, not just a clever label but a good Strong Ale as well.

Pours golden with chunks of sediment and no head. Malt scents are super-dominant with butterscotch hints and an alcohol background. Taste follows the nose with extremely dry finish. The palate is quite smooth and vibrant despite looking like a poorly mixed smoothie.
