walter (359), Staunton, Virginia, USA Feb 17, 2008 Awesome bottle! Hazy light orange color with white head. Aromas of lemon and orange, light sugary malt, grass, metal, yeast, and spice. Flavor is tart and tangy lemon and orange citrus, with loads of yeast, really nicely balanced. Great biting carbonation, with a lingering yeast on the finish. Man I love Brooklyn! Great stuff!
awiseman01 (15), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Sep 3, 2008 Bottle. Pours bright yellow/orange with medium head, good lacing. Smells of Belgian style, yeast, wheat, citrus. Taste is juicy orange, belgian wheat, slightly sweet, with some honey; medium carbonation is a great touch. The flavor is very full attributed to the bottle re-fermentation. Great lingering finish of belgian style. Some noticable hops that taste great as well. I heard this won’t be around much longer....sad if it’s true. Kevster (194), Bradenton, Florida, USA Aug 29, 2008 Bottle: Pours a cloudy golden color with a thin off-white head. Malty aroma is spicy and citrusy with hints of pepper, bananas, and honey. Flavor is sweet and tarty that is creamy yet a dry mouthfeel on the palate. Well balanced and enjoyable! KyotoLefty (113), Kyoto, Japan Aug 29, 2008 750 ml bottle, 8 months in storage. Medium golden with a bit of honey orange. Low, lacy head. Spicy, citrus aroma of honey, lemon, Belgian yeasts, golden malts. Spicy, citrus, honey-like flavor, spritzy, lots of honey and lemon, medium sweetness, nice hopping. More hops than a regular saison, a bit more simple in the malts, and a bit too much alcohol taste, but very nice. Excellent, nice all around, though a step down from a Dupont. Should age well for a couple years. Jonte (376), Gothenburg, Sweden Aug 29, 2008 Bottle. Cloudy golden yellow color with a white head. Aroma: Sweet and fruity, oranges, tangerines, banana, yeast, pepper, caramel and spices.
Flavor: Sweet fruit, oranges, tangerines, spices, wheat, yeast, alcohol and some bitterness in the finish. maybe a bit too sweet and cloying. Medium to full bodied. Not bad, but a bit too much after a while. I would rather drink Duvel. nqualls (205), Tennessee, USA Aug 26, 2008 750 mL bottle. Poured a hazy yellow color with a huge white head. Lacing was prevelant. Aroma was light citrus notes with a yeast/bread smell of a Belgian. Flavor has banana and cloves with some warming alcohol. Medium bodied with mild carbonation. This was a very enjoyable beer.
