Mar 23, 2009 Interesting adaptation on a great style by Dogfish Head. Appearance is great... cloudy, sedimented ruby. It kinda has the aroma of Belgian Strong Ale mixed with red wine. Not sold on the flavor. Gets better the more you drink but that may have been the 10% abv talking. Flavor is fruity, a bit spicy and tart. Dry finish; not bad at all.

Mar 20, 2009 Red in colour with some orange around the edges of the glass, thin but lasting white head, some light lacing. The aroma is of very light alcohol, highly sweet, red grapes, oranges. The flavour is of grapes, orange citrus, very lightly spicy with some black pepper, juicy, moderate alcohol, moderate sweetness. Sweet mouthfeel, medium body, medium carbonation. Finishes with a lingering sweetness, warm.
Its okay but I was starting to wish that this came in a smaller bottle. Quite expensive, another weird one from DFH but it seems to work.
750ml bottle from Premier Gourmet in Buffalo, New York.
Opened on June 27, 2008.
Bottled on February 9, 2007.

Mar 16, 2009 Updated: Mar 20, 2009On tap at DFH. A nicely balanced ale--not so much wit really, but a nice belgian ale with pinot hints. Thick tan head, ruby color, light yeasty aroma and just the right touch of alcohol warming in the body.

Mar 15, 2009 Nope, didn’t get this one. Hazy golden with light red tint and white head. Spicy and slightly sweet aroma, similar to a triple or wit combo. Spicy up front, then syrupy and an unwelcome medicinal (band-aid) aftertaste. Not pleasant at all. Sadly I feel they missed the mark by a wide margin on this one. On tap and Andy’s DFH Promo night.

Mar 15, 2009 750ml from my boy Wolf. Shared with DuffManSW. Almost smells like a stinky cheese, some light friut as well, citrus matbe. Glowing orange color with a white head. Very tasty though, much different than the aroma, a little sweet and some alcohol in the finish. Another one missed be mspindler.

Mar 14, 2009 This one is interesting. Pours a gorgeous orange-red with a creamy off-white head that dissipates to a thin cap of lace. Aroma is all Belgian fruit with a hint of citrus. The pinot noir and oak do lend a wine-like tartness that is a bit off-putting at first. The more I drink it, however, the more I find it compliments the typical Belgian fruitiness. Thick, oily mouthfeel. Big, warming alcohol.

Mar 12, 2009 Updated: Mar 23, 2009Consumed at 50 degrees. Smells of dry white wine with a hint of grapes and oak. Pours reddish amber with lacing and thin white head. Has excellent body and amazing palate. Not a huge wheat fan, but it’s complexity makes you forget because it takes your taste buds on a ride. Has a much maltier profile than the smell makes you think. Tastes of orange, vanilla, and as smooth as the day is long.
