An odd beer to try in Edinburgh, but Andrew bought it. Pours a pure golden hue with a large foamy Belgian Ale head. A sweet nose of some funk and sweet malts. The flavor is nice; warm, rich honey and apples, funky Belgian yeast, spicy. Enjoyable.

Aroma is some hops, a bit malty, but not a strong smell. Quite an intimidating glass and a golden colour. Has a soft brown-ale flavour with caramel and hops. Nice, unique, memorable.

chicagodri (1599) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - AUG 20, 2010
Decent beer I had in Barcelona. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma of malt, sugar, some spice. Little beat of heat in the flavor with some sweetness and spice. I thought it was average - but good compared to what else I had in the area.

Another great belgian beer, one of my favorite. Good appearence, golden with a nice spume. Taste is sweet and fruity and becomes slightly bitter at the end, giving a pleasant tickling at the palate. Aroma of orange, spices, alcohol and hints of honey. I really appreciate every time i can savor this "smooth and tempting" belgian.

Neeskens (276) - SWEDEN - JUL 24, 2010
Golden, slightly hazy. A lot of spices, yeast and warmth from the alcohol. Rich body with caramel but perhapps to sweet.

Vaiz (1847) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - JUL 23, 2010
Bottle at home. Clear golden pour, white creamy head. Aroma is spicy, peppery malts, with some alcohol notes. Flavor is slightly sweet with toffee and nuts, spicy bitter, somewhat alcoholic and quite full bodied with a deep malt base. Creamy texture and above average carbonation. Simple yet nice brew.
