Barnyard spice and sweet clove. Slight hazy gold, foamy head with good lacing. Apricot sweet with liquorice clove, noticeable bitterness, well-balanced. Big carbonation, full body, spicy fruit, with a late alcohol burn. Deep and rich, good balance, drinks nicely, maybe a little hot.

The first "good" beer I ever had, and this is the first I’ve tried it again since. Decent look, slightly hazy yellow with average retention and lacing. Pleasant aromas of flowers, yeast, bananas, other fruits. Quite sweet but not cloying, more banana, creamy, a touch of bitterness, finishing with a metallic (but not as much so as Orval), clean balance.

What a beer! I’m new at beer tasting. I just started to expand and try new things. My first belgian to the best of my knowledge. Only negative is I wish i made more money so i could buy more of it. Belgian is my new fav.

Pours a glowing orange golden with generous amount of floaties and big sudsy frothy white head. Nice bright floral fruity aroma, some apples, candied orange, bananas and a touch of vanilla. First taste is bitter, off-dry, metallic, yeasty with subtle fruit. Finishes malty with notes of banana. Medium bodied , slightly sticky, with lots of fine sharp fizzy carbonation. Sweetens up quite a bit as I continue to drink.

pours a foggy orange with no head. a nice bite but very smooth with a great aftertaste. in my opinion tastes like dreamweaver

Bottle from Kegs & Barrels in McKinney, TX. Pours a cloudy deep orange/gold with off-white head. Aroma is great, fruit, citrus, floral, barn. Flavor is just as good, malt, barnyard, citrus, nice little hoppy bitter. Mouthfeel is pretty solid with crisp carbonation. Overall, pretty good stuff!

Fluffy, off-white head. Mildly cloudy, orange/amber hue. Looks wonderful in the Chimay chalice. A honey sweetness in the nose,some citrus and bubblegum. Some malt and herbs in the aroma. Flavours are complex, with citrus zest and a resiny hops that give it gorgeous flavour and a nice bitterness. Some spicy clove in the flavours, and the alcohol presents itself well. Amazing.
