ryan (1673), Beltsville, Maryland, USA Apr 22, 2008 Courtesy of kmweaver. Hazy golden body with a giant, rocky white head. Spicy, herbal nose with grass, honey, cotton candy, dough and light citrus. The flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter with lots of herbal, citrus, pine and citrus hops, honey, cotton candy, dough and golden fruits. Medium body is soft with moderate carbonation. A very pleasant surprise!
after4ever (1652), Brier, Washington, USA Jul 25, 2008 750, capped. Thanks, Dany! Hazy, rubied, burnished medium gold. Thick, creamy egg-white head. Gamey, nutty, sweet/grassy nose. Creamy medium body. Active carb. Bone-dry finish and throughout, but has sweet grass and lemon notes dancing around here and there as well...amazing balancing act between mouthfeel and flavors. Rich and complex and perfectly harmonious. And as for the abv...this beer can’t possibly have that much alcohol in it. It’s too light to hide it. Just spectacular work here. Viper666 (402), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Jul 20, 2008 Bouteille 750ml (2007). De couleur dorée et voilée. Nez de levures fruitées (agrumes, moyen de bananes, notes de poires et de pêche), malté de pain, de houblon floral et herbeux (herbes fraîches), léger de sucre bonbon et d’épices (poivre, léger de coriandre et de clou de girofle, notes de cannelle). Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement élevé et croustillant ainsi qu’une texture moyennement crémeuse. Goût de levures fruitées (agrumes et zest, moyen de bananes, léger de poires et de pommes, notes de pêche) acccompagné d’un moyen goût épicé (moyen de clou de girofle, léger de coriandre et notes de cannelle) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût malté de pain et léger de sucre bonbon parallèlement à une moyenne amertume assez asséchante de houblon floral, herbeux (herbes fraîches, traces de thé et de menthe) et aux petites notes citriques et terreuses jusqu’en finale, où l’on retrouve également un goût de levures épicées (poivre doux) ainsi qu’un léger goût d’alcool réchauffant. Post-goût moyen-long et assez sec, moyennement amer de houblon herbeux et floral, de levures fruitées (zest de citron, pelures de pommes et de bananes) avec des notes d’alcool. doubleo (670), San Diego, California, USA Jul 18, 2008 750ml, vintage 2007 from glouglouburp. Pretty damn good! Pours hazy dark yellow with a billowing, fluffy, white head, great retention, total sheet lace. Smells yeasty and bready with some spice notes and slight sweet fruit scents. Tastes similar to the way it smells. Bready and yeasty sweet, again some spiciness and a good bit of peach type stone fruit flavor. Medium body with crisp, vibrant carbonation, Beerman6686 (538), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 17, 2008 WOW! Aroma was or some spices, pepper, and some candy sugar. Flavor was very mellow, but in a good way. It combined the spicey flavor of a saison with a nice banana flavor of a tripel. If I were to order a Belgian, this is what I would want. DragonStout (1139), Orlando, Florida, USA Jul 12, 2008 Shared by Beerlando.Poured a golden color with a nice pillowy white head. The nose was hoppy with some citrus. Flavor was hoppy with a citrus zest and bananas.This finished off more bitter than it seemed in the flavor.Thanx Bryan.
