Sweet malts, nice oats, some chocolate and an interesting astringency. Sharp bitter, balanced, drinkable.

May 22, 2009 On tap @ Happy Gnome. Great establishment, by the way...crystal clear 24 karat pour with a fluffy ivory head that left subtle lacing. Aroma is all Belgian: with candied sugar, spice, and Belgian yeast. Flavor is quite sweet with hints of raisin, Granny Smith, and even banana. Somewhat thin but flavorful.

May 21, 2009 A 2009 bottle. The pour was clear and copper with a nice, but thin, creamy white head. Minimal lace. The aroma was malt, light spice and a bit of yeast. The flavor was more complex. Light funk or band-aid over the top of some citrus, malt, spice and yeast. Relatively thin body but in a smooth way, not a cheap way. Pretty dry overall. Good stuff.

May 21, 2009 A- Pours a sunset orange hue with tons of visible carbonation bubbles and a fairly thin, eggshell head.
S- Smell is belgian yeast, apple, clove, banana.
T- Taste is fairly solid and round, lots of light fruity notes, apple and banana complemented by a big malt backbone.
M- Thick with medium to low carbonation.
D- Even though i’m not a huge fan of the style, i enjoyed this one quite a bit. Very balanced and easy to sip on.

May 15, 2009 I don’t remember which of the Orlando guys shared this with me, so I’ll thank them all for being a kick ass bunch of guys. Malty aroma with dark fruits and some spices. Flavors follow, with a good malt character.

May 14, 2009 Enjoyed in a Matilda chalice at Lunar Brewing Co. for the GI Past Meets Present tasting. Poured a clear, amber with an off white head that diminished to a light layer and left some fair lacing. The aroma was that of malt sweetness, yeast, mid-toned fruit, and some floral and spice notes. The flavor combined these with a smooth malt character, a bit of alcohol, and a nice, dry finish.
