commercial description of the color works for me... or rich brown with cherry stained wood hues and a gigantic scalded cream colored head which leaves random sheets of lacing in it’s wake. smells really malty and fruity... oxidized red apples, yeast, wood and some warm spiciness. the flavor reminds my of a riesling or lightly sweet white wine... golden raisins, malt powder, more bruised apples, brown sugar, chocolate and yeast. there’s even some tannic structure as well akin to black cherries and a light acidity on the tongue. the finish dries out nicely and leaves behind some yeasty aftertaste. light to medium body with an airy texture from big soft bubbles...

Dec 3, 2008 Light brown reddish in color with a decent beige colored head. Smell is malty, belgian, somewhat sweet. Taste is sweet like, malts, touch of hops, and some spices. Sort of boring.

Nov 29, 2008 Dark brown with a beige thick foamy milkshake head that thins but stays foamy and floats on top. Faint yeasty aroma. Sweet, malty, yeast taste. Very refreshing and hides 7% alcohol well.
