Brewtopia’04. Smells very flowery for a Belgian, well, a different kind of flowery. I assume that is somehow related to the ’bitter’ness to come. Massive unripe pear and bleu cheese flavors. Barny. Musty, yet fresh and alive. Fabulous and fascinating. I loved this beer. Great astringency. This beer put me in the mood for farm cheese and champagne.

Sep 1, 2008 (Dégusté avec french tickler) Une biere de couleur Or brumeux, avec un mince collet collant. Odeur d’orange, raisins vert, sel , épices,fine herbes et fleural. Gout de blé, sel, un peu épicés. Une biere tres développer au niveau arome, par contre moins convinquante niveau gout.

Aug 28, 2008 Bottle at Milltown. Pours a soft pale hazy gold with a 1-2 finger creamy white head. The nose was sweet, grassy hops, grapefruit rind, light citrus, some Belgian yeast. You can tell from the nose that its going to be pretty bitter. The flavor is pretty bitter and waxy, but you can tell its from low AA hops, sweet orange peel, becomes astringent. The palate is bracingly bitter .

Aug 23, 2008 On tap @ the Oldsmar Tap House. Pours hazy gold with bright white head. The aroma has mild sharp tart citrus lemon acidity, wheat and a soft level of sweet malts. The taste is fresh and lively with lemon – acidity, grapefruit peel, muted wheat and a splash of malt sweetness. The acidity builds into the finish. Refreshing and crisp. Nice hot weather brew.
