| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 25, 2007 Copper pour, huge white head that stays big the whole time. Aroma is vinegar, orange, belgian gueze like yeast, straw and spicy. Flavor is sweet with lots of honey sweetness a touch of caramel, hay, grassy and bready. A touch of yeasty sourness, a good amount of hop bitterness, spiciness and citrus throughout. Complex flavor, full body and lots of lively carbonation. mhelgason (495), Charlotte, North Carolina, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Nov 23, 2007 Hazy orance/gold color with a large dense head, yeasty nose, bitter/ sour flavor with a good dash of spice, finishes dry. This beer has a lot of good qualities but they don’t seem to work all that well together as a whole. downender (2578), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 22, 2007 Bottle. Hazy gold colour with a huge white head and some floaters. Lots of carbonation and a heavy mouth feel. The aroma was yeasty with tropical fruit. The flavour had lots more yeast and peppery spice before an astringent hoppy finish. This was too assertive all round for me. yespr (11906), Copenhagen O, Denmark
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 20, 2007 33 cL bottle. Pours very lively with the classic and rediculous huge white De Dolles head. The beer is orange and almost clear. Aroma is fresh grapefruity hoppy. Flavour is sharp yeasty mixing in with a solid caramel malt sweetness and a decent bitterness in the finish. Straight forward yet powerful. faroeviking (6024), Republica Vikingo de las, Faroe Islands

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 11, 2007 Holy head, Batman! This beer pours a cloudy golden colour with an INSANE head. It was resting for quite some time but had traveled a lot prior to opening it. When I uncapped it I had a rising flow of foam that spilled onto the floor and refused to pour nicely for the next 15 minutes. Wow. Aroma is spicy and full of character. Taste is very, very spicy - strong and malty and creamy with lots of peppery hops in the warming finish with a light alcohol note. Body is creamy and chewy, great carbonation, what a treat!!! Many thanks to Boutip for the trade!
