ricksivrea (10), Ivrea, Italy Feb 22, 2009 ambrata, forte, xon gusto di liquirizia, tabacco caramello.
schiuma non vista (bevuta direttamente in bottiglia) topherh (878), Kearney, Missouri, USA Feb 5, 2009 Pours a slightly hazy yellow. Aroma is very malty. Flavor is sweet then green apple sour, sugary, and metallic with a slightly hot finish. jgentgesdo (564), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA Jan 27, 2009 Pours rather muddy brownish/yellow with minimal tan head. Nose is faint malt. Flavor is of slight yeasty spice, malt, and alcohol. Watery mouthfeel. This is a belgian strong? trevor211 (500), Seattle, Washington, USA Jan 25, 2009 If this is a blonde, then my last girlfriend certainly wasn’t. Pours a ruddy orange with a very thin head. Smells like a very fresh Samichlaus - sickly sweet malts, very ripe tropical fruits (esp. papaya) and booze. The flavor is downright bad. Watered-down (alcoholled-down?) macro beer with some sugary syrup added to try and mask it. This could be something a frat party whipped up to be efficient if only barely palatable. Hot, slightly metallic, and devoid of any interesting flavors. Yech. I do like the label, though (aside from the blatant advertisement of the ABV). Rogueone (506), I F&ckin’ hate those guys from, Ohio, USA Jan 23, 2009 Aroma is light raisin, and a bit bready. Velvety texture, caramel malt, and a sweet yeastiness that lingers on the tongue. Not my thing. azlondon (655), Fribourg, Switzerland Jan 21, 2009 Appearance: Dark golden brown. Good amount of off-white head.
Aroma: Ripe fruit. Alcohol and some yeast.
Taste: Quite bitter, some malt and alcohol. Warming.
Info: 250ml bottle, 21/1-2009, 212/500 VAAC (29), Middlebury, Indiana, USA Jan 20, 2009 Strong aroma as well as flavor, but the palate is almost overwhelmed by the strong alcohol aftertaste. Fun to whip out at parties and make fun of your friends for drinking "wussy beer!", but it gives a massive morning headache. IrishBoy (2685), Bakersfield, California, USA Jan 18, 2009 250 ml bottle from Bevmo, Valencia. Nose of a grainy lager with grassy hops, cinnamony spice, and some light alcohol. Clear light orange with a medium, galss lacing, pale yellow head. Flavor is spicy caramel malt, alcohol, a little sweetness, and a light bitterness. Very different BSA. Not bad at all.
