Light orange, tight persistent head. Sweet yeasty hoppy classic belgian aroma. Lively carbonation, quite tingly, both from hops and from alcohol. Taste is a bit saccharinney. Pretty hoppy and soft malts. Not exceptional. SSSteve (1572), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Aug 29, 2008 hazy gold under a creamy white head. banana, coriander, sweet creamed corn, and flowers aroma. flavors of delicate banana, yeast, the corn of creaminess, honey, and spices(hint of fresh picked mint leaves). a bit too bubbly, sharp, and carbonated. light bodied. overall its a good one and much better than the dubbel. scraff (1672), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Aug 25, 2008 750mL bottle, courtesy of argo0. Thanks, Aaron! Light hazed gold, creamy off white head. Flowery ginger aromas ride light notes of honey bread and lemon. CItric sugar and ginger tones round to a yeasty floral finish. Medium bodied, medium carbonation, sugary spiced finish. Decent stuff, but not really true to style in my mind...
