Growler: Poured a dark copper with a very thin head. Sweet alc. aroma with a buttery caramel candy smell and an over-ripe apricot fruitiness. Bit thin on the palate I thought but general Belgian taste. Sweet malt flavour with a minor balanced bitterness and a sticky alc. finish that warms you as the beer warms.

Amber colour with not much head. Bubble gum aroma. Not a bad tasting beer however my palate may just be happy I stepped away from the hops for a bit. Spicy yeast, sweet slightly bitter finish. GCBF.
