2011 Belgianfest – Seattle, WA
Darkish amber in color, clear with a thin head. Lots of fruit aroma and flavor. Good malt and a nice Belgian yeast mix. Good tasty Belgian.

Tap at Fiddlers. (from Northgate Big horn)

Slightly hazy orange pour, not much head. Prickly carbonation combines with some alcohol to give a more aggressive mouthfeel than would be ideal, but otherwise drinkable enough. (Certainly not a disappointment like just about every other big horn beer I’ve ever had!) Estery nose, a very mild melon sweetness early, bretty peppery close with a a little bit of intruding butter.

Tap at Northgate Ram. Hazy orange with a nice head. Big fruity aroma with hints of yeast, clove, spice, and oranges. Big hoppy flavor. Lots of citrus with hints of lemon then grapefruit and orange. Lingering spice from the yeast and a nice dry bitterness. Very good take. Was more like a Belgian IPA, but nonetheless, pretty fantastic.
