3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20It really is pretty good, though my first taste put me more in mind of a saison than an IPA and the second had me thinking a witbier (due to the orange peel, perhaps?). Pours a golden yellow with smallish head. Aroma and flavor dominated by citrusy hops and the orange peel added to the mixture. Has a nice, sweet finish to it. Worth checking out.

Bottle. Pours hazy butterscotch amber with a medium off-white head that dissipates with nice lacing. Aroma is citrus, yeast, bready malt. Flavor is the same, citrus forward, lightly sweet with a light bitter body increasing in bitterness at the finish as the orange peel kicks in and adds zesty, lightly bitter tones. Definitely Belgian yeast character throughout. Pretty good beer - would be better without the orange peel, I think.

Pours deep amber with a small head.
Nose shows herbal hops and spicy Belgian notes along with orange blossom and light sweet malt.
Pretty aggressive flavour. Some spicy Belgian notes and earthy, herbal hops before a little malt shows up to be swallowed by the assertive sharp bitterness.
Too much carbonation.

The malts, hops and yeast battle for the smell. It is a deep cloudy amber. It taste pass though the bitter hops sweet malts and finally rests you on the yeasts. It stains the palate pleasntly for a few minutes after the sip. Its a great beer lots of flavor to explore that comes together nicely.

4.7 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
Bottle from K & L. Killer aroma. Murky dirty-orange ale with a mid-sized, fizzy, white head. Stir it up if you like that kind of thing like I do The bouquet is a complex melange of orange zest, tropical fruits, white pepper, biscuity and bready malts, hints of resin, and clove. Full-bodied and The flavor leans tropical and bitter, but hints of bready, biscuity malts like in German beers. The finish is peachy and provides lingering, rindy bitterness. Really delicious.

Sour yeasty and wheaty aroma! White head and wheaty golden brown color. Tastes great!. Taste somewhere between an ale and a wheat. Pretty floral at the same time. This would go great with lunch on a Saturday.

I rate this regardless of style. It is a very nice belgian ale, but there is very little hops. I get more coriander both nose and taste. It has somewhat of a bitter finish however. Very nice, buttery palate, I really enjoyed this beer
