Pastor (293), Maine, USA Dec 21, 2007 750 ml Bottle poured hazy orange with a white head that turns to lace. Aromas of bubblegum and a light citrus candy fill the nose. The palate is medium with a light carbonation on the tongue. Flavors of sweet sugar and bubblegum with a big almost pepper bite in the finish. Not one of my favorites Belgium strong’s but one of the best Americans takes on the stile for sure
leaparsons (4058), Leicester, Leicestershire, England Dec 4, 2008 Bottle. Hazy gold with a small white head. Aromas are soft oranges and yeast with bubblegum and banana. Light, yet fresh. Flavours are spiced oranges with yeast and cream. Fruity rather than malty with bitter orange rind. The alcohol is not overbearing. Dry on the aftertaste. Good. jujubeast6000 (551), Houston, Texas, USA Nov 29, 2008 Reviewed 11/21/2008 (bottle):
Pours a clear golden color body with a big frothy white head, good lacing & lasting Flowery malty banana aroma. Light fruit and sweet spices. Not overpowering. Spicy banana taste. Light malts, watery palate, but carbonated. Some what warming. Nice Belgian-y taste. Super carbonated as it warms, harsh. PaulHegedus (177), Brampton, Ontario, Canada Nov 29, 2008 Bottle at Volo, Toronto, November 2008. This looks cloudy yellow, gold with a reasonably long lasting head in two tall Brooklyn label goblets. There is nice lacing on the glass. The aroma is yeasty, a bit spicy with some pear and citrus. The flavour is full of lime, with some other citrus fruits, apple, and subtle hops in the finish. Nicely complex in flavour. I like the mouthfeel too, with plenty of carbonation on the tongue. A shame this doesn’t see much distribution in Ontario, and none outside of a couple of private restaurants, pubs. rustychiles (546), Mesa, Arizona, USA Nov 28, 2008 Sample at The Big Pour in Mesa AZ. Pours a golden color with a small white head. Aroma of yeast malt and spices. Flavor is esthers, spices, malt.Decent brew, but not my thing. Sparky27 (717), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Nov 27, 2008 Sample from 750ml bottle at Draft Magazine’s Big Pour in Mesa. Pours a cloudy yellow with a white head. Nose is very sweet with some spice. Taste s bubblegum, light spice, cotton candy. Medium mouth feel. A little too sweet for my taste, but a well put together beer.
