skoisirius (570), Seattle, Washington, USA May 22, 2008 750ml. I had no idea this was supposed to be somewhat of a Belgian...I mainly tasted a lot of overpowering sweet malts, blending with somewhat of a bananay yeast, with a very mild hop note in the middle. Alcohol is hidden well. Not very carbonated, this one goes down waaaay smooth. Not my favorite. hopdog (5525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA May 17, 2008 750ml bottle. Poured a medium yellow color with a larger sized whtie head. Aromas of yeast, banana fruitiness, and spices. Tastes of bananas, spices, and some citrus. Body on the carbonated side.

Light straw, cloudy with huge rocky persistent head. Sweet malt background with some spicey phenolics of clove and pepper. Medium fizzy mouthfeel with some hop bitterness and alchohol warming in the finish. Headbanger (1574), Aurora, Illinois, USA May 15, 2008 750 ml bottle-A hazy orangish yellow with a nice big white head and an aroma of belgian yeast, citrus, sweetness, and some coriander. Taste of yeast, coriander, wheat, spices, and citrus. A very tasty and well balanced beer. Todeon (314), Sweden May 7, 2008 Updated: May 14, 2008Bottle. Aroma is pretty soft with some fruity and citrus notes. Flavor is a bit Duvel-like with lots of orange,citrus and a nice sweetness. Really smooth and delightful beer from Brooklyn! hiddenvariable (194), pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA May 7, 2008 pours a cloudy gold with a huge white head that lingers a while. a nutty malt smell dominates, but is accompanied by lots of fruity esters: pears and apples stand out the most, with some banana, grape, and maybe even some strawberry finishing it out. flavor is much the same, with a light caramel hint coming through as well. lightly bittersweet finish, medium body, perhaps a hint of tartness in there as well. tons of carbonation for a tight, creamy mouthfeel. quite good. dehory (1), New York, New York, USA does not count May 4, 2008 Lovely honey and grapefruit notes. A hint of hay and soft leather. The head is full and creamy. Cloudy pour gives way to a gold-amber hue. Excellent mouthfeel - full and round.
A smooth, delightful beer. soyorganic (217), Denver, Colorado, USA May 3, 2008 Updated: Jun 2, 2008According to the description, this beer has a high eco-footprint. Nevertheless, the ingredients shipped from around the world make this a good beer. The bottle is a presentation in itself. Pours cloudy gold with a white head that lasts throughout the beer lacing was not significant. Citrus, yeasty aroma. Nice Belgian flavor with a very slight alcohol taste. Very smooth and flavorful beer with a suble but noticable yeasty, savory belgian aftertaste. A Belgian that does not try to be too fancy it just relies on the quality of ingredients and the essence of the style.
