wkalle (110), Sweden Feb 27, 2009 Pours light copper red with medium head quickly diminishing without lacing. Rather hoppy nose with some spices and a very faint smokiness. Flavor is malty with a well balanced hoppy bitterness. Medium to thin body. An ok belgian everyday brew. JCastner (102), New York, USA Feb 22, 2009 Pours a deep ruby with a finger size white head. Beautiful crystal clear appearance. Lots of carbonation. Aroma of cloves, allspice and some dried fruit. Sweet on the front with a dry finish and almost no bitterness. Taste is stale and lacks any complexity - a disappointment. FatguyRacer (129), Crownsville, Maryland, USA Feb 21, 2009 Updated: Feb 22, 2009Bottle. Poured a hazy amber into a De Koninck glass with little to no head. Slight hops on the nose, otherwise not much else. Crisp and clean on the palate. Hoppy with mild malts and a nice aftertaste. Slightly bitter. If you sat this next to a Bass Ale in a blind test you’d be hard pressed to tell the difference. Pwn3d (1042), Manhattan, New York, USA Feb 18, 2009 Bottled sampled a while back. Not the best representation of the style.. light on flavor and nose. Good carbonation. Overall rather unmemorable. Nebulor (109), , California, USA Feb 17, 2009 Some beerish aromas similar to lambics and some malt in the background.
Has a real light amber color with a copper hue. Off white head dissipated with some sign of action and a little sediment.
Has a broth taste with some eyewater tea sweetness inthe background.
Light to medium bodied and a watery blended resin feel.
Definite session beer kind of a mild chewy amber. rozsoma (43), Győr, Hungary Feb 12, 2009 light reddish brown colour, filmy foam
first taste is just like leffe, but not that complete, hoppy, long-lasting bitterness with some fruity taste
simple outside, complex inside
pleasent surprise PMgep (71), Lund, Sweden Feb 4, 2009 [330 ml bottle] Bright, red color, like raspberry lemonade. Very little foam, that disappera very fast. There is hardley any aroma, but there is a fain hint of malts. The flavor is ok at the start, with some malt and some fruit. Sadly, the flavor disappera veryy fast and doesn’t leave a trace. MennoO (112), Haarlem, Netherlands Jan 17, 2009 bottle, nice appearance, taste is disapointing though, a hint of alcohol. I do like it sometimes on draft though, on a nice cold autumn day, but now it’s a waste of taste buds...
