12oz bottle, notched on May (bottled on, 2008) thanks to <i>TURDFERGUSON</i>, thank you! Lightly hazy orange caramel with a ring of white head. Pears, apricots, and a bit of apples. Fruity. Cotton candy and spicy yeasty esters are also present. Flavor actually got a bit more fruity, but seemed a bit off somehow. Peach pits show up in the flavor, and it’s a big friggin’ fruit cocktail. Semi-dry finish with bitterness peaking around a 1 to 2. Pretty low carbonation with a medium body. Too much sweet and overripened fruit is going on here, though it wasn’t bad, by any means.

Jan 6, 2009 12 oz bottle pours medium yellow with a wispy head. Aroma is sweet and slightly yeasty. Initial taste is a bit bitter. Then there is a sweetness and slight pepper. Thin body but drinkable. Not bad.

Dec 12, 2008 Thanks Turdferguson. Pours a semi clear honey gold with a hint of orange tint. Small white head does not last long and ends in a ring. Nose is fruity, yeasty, and sweet spice. Feel is quite zesty but somewhat watery. Flavor is full of clove and sugar with warming alcohol. Fruit, yeast, and some earthiness. Finish is pepper spice. An interesting and decent beer.

Dec 12, 2008 12oz bottle from nearbeer. Thanks! Bottled September 2008. Poured a hazy medium orange-brown color. The head was white and reduced relatively quickly to a thin film. Smelled of brown sugar, light clove, and butterscotch. Medium bodied and delicately sweet with light unexpected acidity. Possibly a bad bottle? Tasted of tart apricot, subdued brown sugar, and a splash of white vinegar.

Dec 12, 2008 Pours a lightly hazy gold orange, with a light off white head. Holy shit, smells atrocious! Kind of like old ketchup and candy sugar mixed together for 2 weeks in the sun. Well, the flavor aint much better. Just a crappy Belgian style brew from an American brewer. Overdone candy sugar and funky notes. Way too sweet, and undercarbonated. Horrific.
