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.

8.4 oz, 13 % bottles, sold in $9 three packs.... Pours w/ very little head but is amazingly clear, begging to be drank. Nose of alcohol & fuel. Taste is pretty one dimensional.... alcoholic. But there are some malts and sugars to attempt at balancing, thou they fail. This beer, as a whole, is FAR from a failure though, as other’s ratings have hinted to. No doubt the alcohol is there, my bottle had a huge 13% on the neck, but the delivery isn’t bad. Sure there are slight singes of rubbing alcohol, but this isn’t a ladies beer.... ladies.

13% 8.4 oz. bottle into Belzubuth glass. Pours a simple clear golden yellowish color with a white head that lighty stays around. Sweet yeast and honey hints come from the aroma. Taste brings out heavy alcohol and malt, citrus, and sweet caramel (a lighter note). Very warm in the mouth and on the palate all the way to the stomach. Is somehow drinkable to me while being heavy tasting in alcohol.

8.4oz bottle that says 13%ABV. Light copper color with big high carbonation induced off white head. Nice Belgium ale type spicy yeast aroma with a tad of floral hops. There is also a wedge of aroma coming from the alcohol. Good lacing. Sweet malt and sweet sugar flavor. There’s some slight banana and cherry fruitiness. Nice flavor for a crazy 13% ABV.

8 oz bottle. LIght copper color heavy large sediment floating through-out. Strong alcohol aroma with notes of vanilla extract and malt. Pretty smooth going down with steady alcohol warmth building. Very malty, smooth with creamy feel and notes of sweet dark fruit.

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.

This beer has a clear and opaque with a golden color to it. It has a very boozy and hoppy aroma. The booze is not that hidden in this beer with all the malt and booze that is in it, considering it is a blonde it is very good. Also the palate duration is very long with orange zest and some hints of corriander. There is also a nice creamy finish which leaves a really nice texture on the sides of your mouth.

Bottle at "bar international beer" in barcelona. thinnish yellow orange pour with small white head. nice lacing. Aroma is subtle malt and grassy hops. flavor is big spicey malt and apparent alcohol. definite esters and fusel alcohol. Palate is pretty creamy, somewhat sticky. Pepper and sweet spice finish this big boy off. nothing spectacular, but pretty good.
