Parket (214), Bruges, Belgium Oct 1, 2009 from tap, nice clear amber colour and small but stable white head. Malty and a bit fruity smell. Taste: roasted malts, malty, fruity, grainy, watery, unpleasant bitterness and a bit artificial. No complexity at all but also not a bad beer. daleharshman (181), San Diego, California, USA Sep 27, 2009 11.2 ounce bottle from BevMo ($2.49). Pours an unusual amber-brown color with lots of floaties and only a small off-white head. Aroma dominated by sweet caramel-y malts along with light spice and brown sugar. Flavor is somewhat bitter and metallic, especially considering the sweetness in the aroma. Dry finish with an unpleasant taste. Really not very good. gunnar (486), Sandnes, Norway Sep 20, 2009 Bottle. Pours amber with a small off-white head. Weak malty aroma, taste is weak roasted malt, fruity, not impressive at all Fratto (670), Arlington, Texas, USA Sep 19, 2009 Brought over from Facebook. My only notes are, "Awkward aroma, okay taste." FishManLA (284), Abita Springs, Louisiana, USA Aug 29, 2009 Pours a brownish amber with a small head. Nose like toasting bread with slight notes of fruit and mild spice. Taste of malts with hints of apple and pear, and perhaps, banana. Tangy finish. riversideAK (2648), Shoreline, Washington, USA Aug 28, 2009 Nose is rather light - toast, caramel, and light fruity/spicy esters. Pours amber, not a lot of head. The flavor starts toasty and ends with some light fruity notes and yeasty esters. Easy drinking, rather boring. Good with food due to its unobtrusive nature. ericandersnavy (1039), crossroads, Texas, USA Aug 14, 2009 bottle from metzlers in denton tx. this poured an amberish color with a white-off white head. this beer was just a complete mess and only my 2nd drain pour ever. malty and fruity for aroma and flavor. did not like this one. i am being very generous on the score IMO. wish i hadnt of bought a 4 pack. i should of stuck with my original plan. milljam (562), Norman, Oklahoma, USA Aug 14, 2009 Average belgian ale. Aroma/flavor of some yeast, clove, caramel, malt, etc. Wasn’t bad, but I wasn’t overly impressed.
