Huge head (the foam sprouted off the bottle when I opened it) on an amber body. Bitter, too bitter at firsct, then quite drinkable. There must be vinegar there. Weird, I won’t make it my regular beer.

Feb 19, 2008 Bottle.Hazy amber with a small head. Orange zest aroma. Nice fruity flavours, orange zest dominating, ending reasonably bitterish. Well-carbonated, medium body. Not bad. Far cry from an altbier, more like a Belgian blond ale.

Jan 4, 2008 Cloudy dull orange pour. Limited off-white head. Timid peach/orange fruitiness dominates fading herbal hoppiness. Not very aromatic. Comfortable, smooth palate with fresh and vigorous carbonation. Faintly bready, not toasty. Refreshing, but at the bottom, nothing more than an easy-drinking amber ale at the price of being a bit dull. Round though.

Dec 7, 2007 Bottle. [Courtesy of yespr, thanks buddy] Huge thick off-white head that really lasted. Excellent lacework. Clear sparkling body with a golden color. Aroma of citrus, grain, caramel, yeast. Some strange notes of what I thought was ginger. Medium bodied with a lively carbonation and light dry texture. Mix of flavours with light notes of sweet, acidic and bitter notes. Light bitter finish.
