Dec 16, 2008 On Tap. pours out a nice mostly clear golden color with a nice fluffy slightly off white head. Aroma is of yeast, fruit, spice and some earthy notes. Taste is complex and well balanced, banana, citrus, some spice and some grainiess in there with a slightly dry finish. Solid.

Dec 12, 2008 Larger Bottle: Pours of a pure golden honey color with a thick white head. Smell of strong hops and a unique grainy bread. Taste is strong hops and alcohol, but leaves the palate with a bitterness which evolves and melts away. Different, but enjoyable.

Dec 12, 2008 Hazy golden color with aggressive bubbles. Really nice, thick and frothy white head. Spicy citrus aroma with lots of sweet fruit. Nice rich flavor of spices, citrus, tropical fruit finishing off with a pleasant grapefruit bitterness and a touch of alcohol.

Dec 10, 2008 Orange-gold pour with a big frothy white head. Aroma has lots of banana, and bubblegum ester. Some alcohol, coriander, pepper, honey and faint floral clover. Flavor is banana, soft clove and coriander, honey, and a slight floral and aqueous finish. Oily body with loads of carbonation but leaves a dry feeling in the mouth after swallowing.

Dec 10, 2008 Bottle from Marble in Chorlton. Hazy orange-amber colour with pleasant, lasting white head. Citrus-orange, yeasty aroma with a spicy apple background. Citrus again in flavour with dried fruits and pepper with a hoppy dry finish. The carbonation is ideal and makes this seem a great deal lighter than the ABV would suggest. A great beer but, for me, not quite up there with the blue or red.

Dec 9, 2008 too many at this point can’tremember what the head looked like. it does leave a few rings in the glass and i do enjoy this beer. i will pay to drink the beer again. milky caramel in color and similar saucy mouth feel. the after after taste reminds me of mamba soft chews. if the tasted like beer.

Dec 9, 2008 Bottle served in trappist goblet with a sizable, white head, slightly cloudy and golden. Cellar temp. Aroma of yeast and heavy, green apple: spicy too with some lemon zest, pineapple, pepper. There’s wonderful carbonation on the tongue and some nice lacing on the glass. The mouthfeel is not too thin. I taste apple and dried fruit, light raisin flavour with some terrific, subtle bitterness, grapefruit. The alcohol is very well masked, especially compared to its Westmalle cousin.
