May 16, 2009 Bottle. Medium high fluffy white head. Hazy yellow body. Barley malt aroma with fruity and spicy notes. Fruity and mildly spiced flavor without much hops bitterness but it is not exactly sweet. Alcohol well hidden. Low carbonation, long aftertaste.

May 13, 2009 aroma of bready yeast and light but succinct floral hops. appearance is of a cloudy belgian golden ale, standard but always striking. flavor is of sharp hops and sticky yeast that hangs on the palate after the sip. palate is spritzy and well carb’d. overall a very solid ale, a ’poor man’s chouffe’.

May 9, 2009 Bottle. Golden pour with a large off white frothy head. Aroma of barnyard, bananas, and yeast. Full bodied taste of honey, sourdough, dark fruit and spices with a great full finish that lingers with some alcohol.

Apr 23, 2009 750 ml bottle. Pours pure golden in color with a huge, pure white head. The aroma is sweet, fruity, yet zesty. It has a smooth, creamy but light body. The flavor profile is a well balanced mix of spice, cloves, citrus, yeasty dough, sweet honey, and ripe fruit. Another great beer from Garrett Oliver.

Aroma: Big Belgian aroma with a great citrus aromas lingering.
Appearance: Golden yellow in color, hazy with a fluffy head.
Flavor: Huge Belgian flavor with cloves and spices added and the citrus was very apparent in the brew. Big brew you can tell.
Palate: Dry Belgian fruity finish, with a Good Mouthfeel.
Overall: One of the better Belgian ales I have had in a long time. They took there time and put out a great product.

Apr 17, 2009 A duvel clone with a full body, spicy nose, sweet taste with yeast. Slightly bitter finish. The fancy bottle and the ingredients don’t hide the fact that this is just a copy belgian, far less interesting than for example what port brewing is doing with their lost abbeys. I’d love to try something good from the brewery but there is nothing available near me.
