4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 keanex (786) - Atco, New Jersey, USA - JAN 9, 2012From a 750ml bottle notched on the 3 and the 11. Poured into a Duvel tulip glass.
A: Slightly hazy amber with a beautiful pillowy white head that maintains it’s size and shape for a few sips. Lots of carbonation activity coming from the D at the bottom of the Duvel glass, like a column of bubbles climbing to meet the head.
S: Sweet and fruity, but mellow, very complex. Banana and strawberries perhaps with light floral hops and slight clove spices. Very inviting, almost as good as Damnation.
T: Matches the aroma perfectly, very inviting and complex. Sweet with the strawberry and banana notes through which blend into the delicate floral hops and end with a light spicey cloves finish. This is almost as good as Damnation in the taste.
M: Expands in the mouth with a creamy body and huge amounts of soft carbonation, very airy.
O: This is an excellent beer and I wish I hadn’t put off so long trying it. It’s one of my favorite beers now and I’ll more than likely buy another for my non beer drinking friends to enjoy.

Kleur en uitzicht: bleek blond, de fijne en regelmatige pareling zorgt voor een fijne, stabiele schuimkraag.
Geur: Licht moutig, flinke touch alcohol, kruiderig.
Smaak: Een flinke scheut alcohol ontvlamt als het ware in de mond, die de tong en het gehemelte werkelijk opwarmen. De smaak is ook gekenmerkt door zijn rondheid. De afdronk is sterk, lang en droogbitter.
