Draft at the brewpub. Dark golden coloured body, and no head. Spicy, but not so drinkable. Certainly inferior to their Belgian strong.

Tap at the Pumpstation. Pours a medium golden with a light haze and decent white head- lasting. Aroma is light biscuit, toast, pils malt, crackers, light spicy peppery phenolics mixed with good herbal hops. Flavor is solid malts, doughy bready with cracker and cereal tones then grass, phenols, pepper, and ends with a soft finish- low bitterness. Actually pretty good, for a subtle beer.

Very solid, well-balanced beer. Low bitterness, several notes of spices and fruity sweetness - very complex. Low bitterness, medium body. It’s a really good beer.

Aroma:Alcohol,light citrus... Appearance:Clear gold,light head... Flavor:alcohol,very fruity...

Nutmeg, corrainder, starfruit, anise, bitter almonds, blood orange, cilantro. Really excellent rendition, complex, subtle, flavorful, melds well, bright orange, intriguing mellow spicy nose, quite fun to drink, low carbonation, medium body. Well done.
