Snifter at GLBC on 12/1/12. Clear copper pour with a medium beige head. Aroma of malt, caramel and light banana esters. Malty and peppery flavor with some banana and a bit of sweetness before a bitter, crisp finish.

This poured a semi cloudy lighter brown color with a beige head. Aroma was very limited, light darker belgian candy sugar and some caramel and spice. Flavor was very dumbed down and watery, light dark fruits and some candy sweetness, but just way too thin.

Apr 25, tap @ The Grest Lakes, Cleveland. Dubbel. Thin grapey dark fruity refreshing flavor. Some alcohol notes. Clear fruity tart finish.

On tap at Great Lakes. Bright transparent orange color with large white head and nice lacing. Aroma is mostly malty while the flavor has a lot of strong fruitiness. Malt flavor was light and sweet but a little dominated by the fruit.
