JoeinUccle (902), Brussels, Belgium Feb 13, 2007 Updated: Aug 24, 2007Bitter orange peel aroma, golden color, thin head that nevertheless sticks to the glass. Initial orange flavor blossoms into wickedly dry hops and a bitter finish that lasts. Excellent. dirkules (613), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Feb 12, 2007 Orange rind isn’t uncommon in BSA’s, but this with the spiciness almost puts it into witbeer territory. Nice and dry with a signature apricot flavor that I have come to notice in almost all the dolle brews. An interesting BSA, Not the best de Dolle. I’d like to see how it ages. soulkitchen (2), USA does not count Feb 10, 2007 Very foamy head that lasted throughout the glass, very cloudy, distinct flavors of raisens and a hint of apple, very good beer that i would recommend to anyone. golubj (1275), Sunnyvale, California, USA Feb 6, 2007 Bottle. Dark yellow with large white head. Enjoyable taste, reminiscent of a decent saison. Notable belgian yeast and spice flavor. alexanderj (2212), Chino Hills, California, USA Feb 4, 2007 Poured a hazy dark yellow; huge, white head. Aroma of spice, yeast, orange, and alcohol. Flavor was much of the same; a little fresh hop presence. Could have used some more complexity. mtdshn (174), Moline, Illinois, USA Feb 3, 2007 12oz bottle. Poured a fantastic amber brown with a VERY large, thick head that slowly faded into a central lump in the glass. Aromas of pine, lime, yeast, alcohol, banana, very strong peach. There’s mostly a medicinal taste that’s kinda reminiscent of pine tar, with some very fresh tasting hop and malt notes. Seemed to have a pretty large area of yeast in the taste which kinda throws off the rest of the flavors and scents in the beer. This is a great one. thewolf (5633), Kolding, Denmark Feb 3, 2007 Bottle from beermouth again. Pours hazy yellow with a very big and very creamy head. Aroma has a creamy feel, slightly like youghurt. Sweet and fruity - pineapple, apples, oranges and some muskyness. Extremely nice mouthfeel - very creamy. Slightly vinious. Highly carbonated. Flavours of banana, apples, some raisin, wheat. A very well-rounded beer. jrob21 (1251), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Feb 3, 2007 Cloudy orange color with a big white head. Bubbles galore. Malty, musty, faint yeast aromas. Very carbonated. Slight yeast and wheat flavors. Faint orange and lemon in there as well. Malt mellows this one but there is a tiny bitter hoppy finish. Subtle and good.
