probstk (1911) - Nepean, Ontario, CANADA - JAN 4, 2010
330 ml bottle from Bieropholie, served at cellar temperature in a tulip glass. GUSHER. DE 22/09.

App.: Cloudy amber with a fair off-white head. Aroma: Sweet honey, almost cloying, light coriander, a touch floral, fairly fruity, light caramel. Palate: Medium body, moderate effervescence. Flav.: Sweet honey, light coriander, fairly malty; cloyingly sweet with a little bitterness and a sweet sugar/malt finish.

Too sweet and kinda plain.

JayBaxter (408) - Greater Manchester, Greater Manchester, ENGLAND - JAN 2, 2010
Hazy orange beer with a lasting white head and a sweet, caramel, fruity aroma. Taste is instantly sweet but with dried fruits in the background - possibly borderline sweet-ish but nice enough.

Boutip (3294) - Gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - JAN 1, 2010
Bottle: Poured a cloudy dirty orangey color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of candy ester is overly sweet with a nice Belgian malt backbone. Taste also contained some nice Belgian ale malt backbone thought overly sweet candy-like ester is a bit much. Body is quite full with limited filtration and good carbonation with no sign of alcohol. Too sweet and candy-like for my taste.
