| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 17, 2009 Nice slightly dry Belgian ale. Pours copper. The aroma and nose are clove. Finishes on a dry note. Maria (6167), Thisted, Denmark
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 16, 2009 It is hazy orange and the head is small and creamy. The aroma has notes of coriander, yeast, fruit and malt. The flavour has a light sweetness and notes of yeast, spice – especially coriander – malt and fruit. IMO the coriander/yeast is a bit too dominating. ajbitt (45), , Indiana, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jun 10, 2009 Aroma: wet birch. earthy. Appearence: Golden, generous head, medium to high carbonation. Flavor: yeast! dried apricot. yeast yeast. Palate: bitey front that mellows; carbonation too present. Overall Impression: unique, earthy aroma. Not their best beer. RJH311 (5), Grand Forks, North Dakota, USA does not count | 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 5, 2009 Delicious beer. Starts with very strong pronounced fruit estery aroma. Light head that dies off relatively quickly. Flavor starts malty and lends toward the belgian yeast complexity with lots of spiciness. light easy finish slightly warmer afterward. Frank (1066), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 5, 2009 Served on tap, it is a very lightly cloudy golden color w/ very little head. Medium sweet and fruity, w/ perhaps a not quite enough carbonation. Some funky yeast notes and a healthy dose of hops keep it interesting. Stylistically, I’d say this most closely matches a saison.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 4, 2009 Flaske: Årgang 2008. Flot rødlig gennemsigtig øl med et lille skumhoved. Duft af gær og en smule krydderi. Smagen er krydret tæt op af en blonde. Godt alkoholbid der garanteret også kommer af en smule mere humle end en origial belgier. God øl. ilovedarkbeer (1333), Dallas, Texas, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 30, 2009 Damn good. Pours a deep orangey golden color with copper highlights and a medium sized creamy off white head. Notes of carmelized apples, baking chocolate, creme filled desserts, brown sugar, raisins. Just delicious, has some goose island flavor mixed with your standard Belgian tastes. CUJO (339), Brooklyn, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 30, 2009 Peculier Pub: Goose Island does it again... pour is cloudy/ hazy... dark amber in color. Nice head, very light lace left on the glass. Yeast is readily available in aroma, roasted nuts, maybe dark chocolate, HOPS, light fruit. Medium carbonation goes well with the overall mildness of the beer.
