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.

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.

Jan 12, 2009 Pours amber with off white head. Aroma is very weak, a bit of spice and grassy hops. Flavor is more spice with a bit of malt and a hint of alcohol. Not too bad for 13%. It’s ok.

Jan 12, 2009 Pours a clear amber with a medium, frothy beige head. Alcoholic citrus aroma with bready hints of Belgian yeast and cinnamon. Bland and clashing flavors of spices, alcohol, light hops, and caramel. Very full bodied, just not a great flavor. The alcohol almost numbs the mouth afterwards.

Jan 12, 2009 Can, tapped in Holland. 13 % alc. by vol. One the last ratings of 2008. Bit hazy deep golden colour with a medium white aroma. Sweet, bit fruity, yeasty and malty aroma. Good mouthfeel. The flavour is sweet with yeast and some wheat, some frutiness, malt, pleasant mild bitterness and little spice. Some alcohol is noticed in the sweet frutish yeasty finish. Thanks Ogi!

Jan 5, 2009 A bit underrated, not nearly as terrible as some of the ratings suggest. Pours a nice blond color with a thin white head. Aroma is grass and wheat, with a touch of lemon zest. Flavor is much the same, with vanilla and malt. Medium bodied and not sticky. Actually fairly good.

Jan 3, 2009 Pours kind of Pale Ale ish with no head, but some big bubbles around the outside of the glass. Nose is cough syrup and yeast. The flavor is better by far, with some malt complexity with fruit and candied sugar. It doesn’t have a lot of heat in the flavor, but the throat burn lasts a bit.
