Sep 5, 2008 Pours a decent hazy apreicot hue with a decent off white head. The nose is all kinds of sugars and a touch of yeast. The flavor goes way sweet with honey and too much sugar, even for my sweet tooth.

Sep 1, 2008 Bottle shared with HogTownHarry, blankboy, tupalev, jerc & garthicus - courtesy of HogTownHarry. Hazy red with a small off-white head. Fruity aroma with a lot of grape, a bit of coriander and other vague herbal notes. Medium bodied. Flavours of fruit and cream, with hints of wood and wine, and a mildly herbal finish. Didn’t wow me, but still quite tasty.

Aug 29, 2008 pours clouds with little bits floating around. Huge head. Smells sweet of belgian but hints of wine. Taste is oak up front giving in to a light red taste. Little spices and alcoholic finish. I can taste the oak. This is a excellent balance between beer and wine. This has a lot going on and could turn a couple wine snob heads. Highly recommended!
