COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brewed with 100% Organic ingredients, this golden elixir has a strikingly fruity and honeyed aroma. The palette is spicier than the aroma shows yet the fruitiness won't be outdone. This beer finishes long and dry with a wonderfully complex character. This beer is served very cold, we recommend letting it warm slightly to bring out its complexity!

Dickinsonbeer (5076) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - OCT 13, 2005
BCTC 05. Pours a deep copper and cloudy with no head. Aroma is spicy with lots of fruity esters. Flavor is mostly yeasty with some spice, pepper, and a touch of sweet malt. Pretty nice smooth aftertaste.

Rastacouere (5920) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - JUL 28, 2005
Dark cloudy gold, little off-white head. Cookieish nose is heavily spice with ginger and coriander. Desserty sweet yeastiness. Feels like alcoholic cookies in mouth, heavily yeasty and somehow working well together, though after a few sips, you’ve really mastered the question. Medium bodied, light carbonation. Sweet and rather simple, but pleasant all the same,

CapFlu (3798) - Victoria, British Columbia, CANADA - JUL 20, 2005
(Draught) Sampled at the Belgium Comes To Cooperstown 2005 in Cooperstown, NY. Pours a golden ale a la Belgian style. Cloudy, golden with a strong vanilla malt. Buttery, bready yet a very decent tripel flavour melding into a thin finish. Good.

UPDATED: AUG 28, 2007 Poured an amber color with a small, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of banana, vanilla, yeast and citrus. Taste of tart chardonnay grapes, citrus, berries, yeast and a touch of alcohol.
