2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 8/20
Amber hue, nice foamy 2cm head is very sticky and long-lasting. Weird airy yeasty aroma has a dominating fruity component (apricot, peach). Coriander touch. Weird palate contains tart citric properties hat reminds of a spritzy ginger ale. Simply overcarbonated big time which inputs a limit on the flavor lenght and development. Finish then appears dry and not so clean. Sad belgian ale.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
a huge head, then a yummy root beer float. Some molasses in there? Second ferment in the bottle. An average beer from this world class brewery. Sweet taste followed on by tart and peppery spice and fruit, then long and dry aftertaste. Try just before meat dinner in lieu of wine.

2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle. I did not enjoy this at all. Pours an amber body with aroma of malt , pilsner hops, some spicy yeast (barely). Flavor is malty, slightly skunked with some rotting fruit. no thanks.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle. On the bland side for a Be;gian ale. This had some reasonable orange rind and spice flavours (maybe a touch of caramel aswell??), however the character didn’t strike me as particularly Belgian, easy to drink.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle that I picked up from somewhere? Consumed at Campsite in Guines, France 12-06-09. Pours light brown/amber with a white head. The aroma is musty. Fruity beer, quite light in taste and almost sessionable. This is quite tasty with a little bitterness showing, but is marked down a little for having a slight metallic edge to it, though I did find it tangy and decent overall. A6 A4 F6 P3 Ov12 3.1

Hmmmm, amberish/gold pour. yeast and honey in the nose. Flavor is yeasty, malty and bread with a light hop note.
