pnista (1008), Bloomington, Indiana, USA Aug 13, 2006 Pours a hazy yellow with an enormous fluffy white head. The nose is that Belgian sourness with a fruity citrusy twang. There’s a light sweetness and a hint of alcohol/cleaning solution. The palate is about average, though the carbonation is a bit high and the body is a bit slippery. The flavor is a bit better than the aroma. Sour tart lemon and apple with a light sweetness and rather obvious alcohol. Yeast funk is a bit forward. Also som carrot thrown in there. The finish is dry with big tart and funky yeast flavors. Hints of cloves linger. Not bad, but not spectacular. tcruicks (282), Bloomington, Indiana, USA Aug 13, 2006 Color is not super appealing- pale yellow, but it has an enormous white fluffy head. Its aroma and flavor are fruity, citrusy, hoppy, a bit sour, with apples. Its not bad, but its also not something I think I’ll have again. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 11, 2006 Pale gold pour with aroma of fruit, some yeasty malt, hopcit. Medium palate with flavors of fruit, hopcitrus, some funky yeast. Nothing to write home about here. cbkschubert (1945), Cochise Co., Arizona, USA Aug 6, 2006 via trade with OhioDad - Big hiss when opening the bottle. Huge head. Couldn’t even pour the whole beer in the glass. Cool bottle, but heavier than must 12 oz. bottles. Pours a bright straw color with a huge white. Lively carbonation. Aroma is fruit and alcohol. Has a sweet fruit taste. Medium to full body. Has a lingering dry finish. Not bad. Thanks Scott. IMtheOptimator (1161), Bethel, Connecticut, USA Aug 2, 2006 Poured a semi-cloudy golden with lots of bubbles and a semi-fizzy off-white head. Somewhat faint aroma of sweet citrus fruit and dry alcohol. Flavor is dry and fruity, with notes of grapes and oranges with some light hops leading into a fairly dry finish. Light fizzy and refreshing body. Not half bad, but not pronounced enough to stand up against superior tripels. Beerio (48), USA Jul 21, 2006 It was fresh, clean, and quenching. It really tasted like a sweet beer met a dry champagne. However, there is not a hell of alot of flavor here to discuss, but sometimes that’s ok. Kiapepito (111), Port Angeles, Washington, USA Jul 19, 2006 it tasted like a bitter sweet white wine to me. golden color. thanks to irishboy for a sample of this beer. i also like the size and shape of the bottle. :-) IrishBoy (2685), Bakersfield, California, USA Jul 18, 2006 Nose of spice apple and some tartness. Slightly hazy gold with a small, fizzy, white head. Flavor is of sour apples with a hint of rears.
