3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Compact and enough adherent foam. Orange amber color. Medium fizz and duration. Scent of wine cellar and mildew slightly yielded. Wrapping taste, much solid and of decided impact. Notes of must and caramel. Medium and canted end towards the bitter.

(Corked bottle) Poured a clear amber with an off white head. Citris notes. You can taste the alcohol. Good beer, but I was expecting more.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Creamy offwhite head, excellent lacing mostly lasting. Nice malty aroma. Average finish with a touch af tosted bread. It is a bit to fizzy.
2.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
Decent floral aroma, ,and a beautiful pour, but this beer tastes plain nasty. Half the bottle down the drain.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
(Bottle 33 cl) Very beautiful amber coloured beer, slightly hazy with a thick, creamy head. Very full-bodied with a distinct sweetness, malty and aromatic. But lacks some of the fruity notes found in the best Belgian ales. 220501
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Brownish red with a sizey white head. Nice apple cider aroma with a hint of cherry. Nicely rustic flavors of applebutter on toast with an appealing dryness at the finish.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Copper color with a nice lacey head. Aroma is malty and lightly fruity. Taste starts off with a respectable balance of lightly bitter hops and softer malt tones. gives way to more light fruits tones, apple and pear, and a somewhat hoppy finish.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
11.2 oz. bottle, the first time I’ve seen it in this format...
Clear, crimson colorint, intense carbonation, rocky, creamy, off-white head that stays a long, long time...
Aroma, sweet and rosy, fruits aplenty, the darker ones, grapes, berry, melon...
Taste: nice bit of hops up front, bold and bright, more brisk fruit shining through...refreshing and flavorful. Medium bodied, with a gentle, fruity, hoppy finish. Nice play on the mouth, this gives much and takes little, offers rewards with each new sip.
There are better biere de gardes, but once this is in my mouth, I find it hard complain about a lack of transcendence in my glass...nice beer, ’nuff said.
