Deep amber, lightly hoppy and slight bitter fragrance with yeast. Taste is fruity malt profile, only a little sweet, dry-grassy hops are present. Pleasant and forgettable.

Bottle. Pours a clear bubbly orangey-amber with an average size lasting rocky off-white head. Nice lacing. Pretty good looking beer. Mild aroma of malt, fruit, light hops and yeast. Flavour is sweet fruity malt with a mild bitter aftertaste. A pleasant surprise to taste hops in a Belgian Ale. Not terribly exciting but still a well balanced, enjoyable and easy to drink beer.

Amber-orangeish hue, with a shy tan-colored head, with a malty nose, toasty malt and fruity aromas follow through on a medium-bodied palate with a fruity, malty character, grainy, toasty accent, with in an emerging hop bittrness finish.

Amber color toped by a nice off white head with moderate lacing. Sweet, mild and nicely balanced. Moderate fruit present. Medium bodied and supported by a relatively low alcohol content. Not bad.

Dark amber. Caramel, nuts, cheese, and alcohol aroma. Malts are dominant in the flavor, but not heavy. Silky finish.

A little yeasty and a very subtile hoparoma (Saaz) when tasted fresh at the brewery. One of the best beers in the world.

Very hoppy for a Belgian ale. Nice copper color, good head retention. Tasty but not spectular.

Bottled. Little flavour at first, but has a little more the further down the glass you get, finishing up well. Very average though.[3.0/5]
