It’s called "The Gift" and it is very nice. This was a great surprise last night. Reminds me of Dragonmead’s Absolution. Just the right fruity taste for a Belgian. Well worth it.

Arrived hazy pale yellow. Strong banana aroma. This one is a banana bomb. Initial taste is sweet, low carbonation and heavy. I would categorize it as an imperial Belgian wheat beer.

Smells fantastic. Strong Banana aroma. Very much like a Tripel but significantly darker in color. Smooth going down with a strong sweet aftertaste. Decent beer that I will definately have again the next time I travel to Clawson.

Got a sneak peek at this one in the bottle... Very expensive taste in a local format. Wow, this malty, high gravity brew made me feel like I was living in the ABBEY.

No head or lacing on this one. Smell of bananas is strong, also noticable in the flavor. A mixture of sweetness and alcohol burn in the mouth with a bit of molasses in the aftertaste, similar to a fruit cordial. As my friend said, "A philosophy in a beer."
