3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
[Bottle, gift from my wife (from beers of Europe) - cheers!] Light, almost insipid gold, thin white head and a moderate fizz. Very Belgian - sweet, yeasty and fruity - but more spicy than others of this ilk. Alcohol is fairly evident. I’m not the biggest fan of Belgian beers, but this was quite pleasant.

UPDATED: JAN 31, 2012 On tap at Snaps Galéria, Budapest. Clear golden color with white frothy head, Sweet-sour aroma, malty, citrus, fruity and citrus. A bit like wheat beer. Light sour taste with some sweetness. Medium body with creamy texture and average carbonation. Malty sweet-sour finish. It’s a very delicious and intesting beer. It’s unique one, worth a try.

A most interesting beer. The aromas are subtle malts with hints of spice and citrus fruit. The appearance is golden with a white pillowy head. The flavors explodes on the mouth. Malt with spice like cloves and a citrus taste. Medium bodied and smooth. Delightful.

Cloudy blonde with a great foamy head. Banana bubblegum aroma & taste. Unfortunately i’m getting a slight iron aftertaste but other than that its delicious.
5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
Where to start; rich, boozy - not one to knock back; the cacophony of flavours in this is bewildering - you know you are in the presence of greatness. Best beer I have ever had by some distance.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Nice amber/gold color; Medium body; Aroma of yeast, fruit, light clove, & spice; Flavor of sweet malt, yeast, clove, fruit (notably apples), hops, and spice; Dry finish; Fairly high carbonation; Nicely balanced; Quite good overall.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours golden and perfectly clear with a big loose head and some lace.
The aroma is fairly neutral at first but comes around with a nice dose of coriander and cinnamon. The aroma also displays a good bit of raw pale malt and yeast driven fruitiness.
The flavor is very spicy and and has a lot of spiced apple cider character to it. The beer is moderately sweet and mildly boozy with lots of chamomile flavor.
I hadn’t tried this in just years... I’m stunned at how different it tastes than what I remember.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Thanks be to Sir Bruce the Jackson for the gift! Freshly baked bread and home brewed grape wine on the pour with a bubbly head that fades to a cloudy cap that hangs around. Complex mix of citrus, bananas, cloves, candi sugar, and honey with a peppery prickle on the back end. Very refreshing and dangerous due to the ABV. Added benefit: cool bottle and artwork!
