3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle; had this one way back during my family xmas beer tating. Pours a brownish copper color with a smallish off white head. Aroma of fruit, bready malt, yeast, honey and grain. Flavor was solid, but nothing really distinctual. Grainy and bready, with fruity, yeast, gape and something akin to dry hopping for me. Ok.

Terrific aroma! Not what I expected. It’s not a Belgian-style ale at all. More of a pilsener-meets-ale. The color makes you think it’s going to be darker and maltier than it is. A good session Belgian beer with spicy notes. Recommended.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap at the Sharp Edge Creekhouse in Crafton. A little more orange than the ubiquitous pale yellow american lager but it’s just as clear. Creamy thin head. Barely any arom but the slight aroma it does have is a clean sweet candy. Rather nice taste impact, friendly and well mannered. Easy to like and no sweat to enjoy. Barely any carbonation. Has some earthy character and feel on the palate and taste buds. Beautiful lacing. Finish is just simply well behaved and amicable. Very good session brew, if I could afford it.

3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap, Beer Bistro, Toronto. Nice looking dark orange colour. Decent creamy white head. Some subtle soft spiciness in aroma. Mouthfeel is medium to light bodied with a refreshing crispness. Taste is slightly malty, a little yeasty, and has a dry finish. Maybe just a tad watery as well. Nothing really outstanding here, just a well done Belgian Ale that I would drink again.

07-01-04 drank on 04-28-04: Clear amber with a small bubbled small white head. Grass, light fruits and yeast in the aroma. Medium to full bodied, starts a bit sweet and ends sweeter than that. Yeast taste stays around for a while at the end.
