Oct 5, 2008 Bottle, thx to fonefan. It pours a fizzy, unclear, golden body with a big off-white head. The aroma has some lovely sour notes, yet it’s sweetish and very fruity, with some hints of spices. Sweet, sugary and slightly yeasty flavor with notes of spices and a lovely fruityness. Some bitterness too, and it has a pleasant warmth from the alcohol. Really effervescent in the mouth, full-bodied and slighlty sticky. Really lovely, the kind of beer I could drink everyday without getting tired of it. (080823)

Sep 20, 2008 bottle thanks to DrHomolka. Pours a cloudy copper with a white head. Nose is of vinous fruit and yeast. Taste is of sweet, overripe fruit - peaches or apricots - and some spices. Mouthfeel is medium and carbonated with alcohol warmth to it.

Sep 10, 2008 Pretty good, a little too sweet for me. Yeasty aroma. Lightly spicey and fruity taste. Sweet, very alcoholic finish was not my favorite. Very full bodied and full flavored. Would have been better with food. Not much for hops or any bitterness.
