Bottled. A golden beer with a thick lasting white head. and good lacing. A sweet candy sugar like aroma with yeasty notes and lemony hops. The taste is the same. Proper Belgian yeast and Saazy floral hop flavours with a bit of pepper. A good Belgian strong.

Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and moderate bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20091021]

The colour was milky. The aroma was dominated by yogurt. The flavour had notes of vegetables to it. It was a rather disgusting brew.

Cloudy amber colour with a fairly big off white head. Malty and yeasty aroma with a light fruity note. Malty and sweet flavor with yeasty/ spicy notes.

Bottle. Hazy golden coloured with a medium sized white head. Acidc aroma of malts and fruits. Fruity flavour of malts and caramel.

Bottle. Light hazy orange colour with a huge white head. Yeasty, light sweet fruity aroma and taste. Medium body with a sweet finish.

(Thanks to Papsoe) 33 cl bottle. Golden colour with a big fizzy head. Yeasty aroma with tones of orange, sourness and sweetness. Sweet malty flavour with hints of yeast, ends up light but someway nothing speciel. Sour finish.

(Bottle 33 cl) Amber golden with floating, stale impurities and a creamy, white head. Fruity, sourish aroma. Malty body with notes of yeast. Seemingly a battle is going on in this beer between the malty sweetness and a weird tartness. Neither seems to win, making this rather unbalanced and flawed. 291205

Bottle: Hazy, orangey coloured, thin but stable lacing head; sweetish fruity (apples, oranges) nose with a tinge of alcohol and yeast; mild sweetish and fruity flavour, creamy mouthfeel; sweetish and malty finish with some bitterness in the wings and traces of "medical" fruitiness. Not unpleasant, mild and fruity brew with well hidden alcohol.

(bottle, 2,5 years old) Cloudy orange-golden colour with a frothy, slightly off-white medium head. Sugary sweet malty and orange fruity nose with yeasts. Sweet flavour, medium body. Initially sweet malty and orange fruity with a light bitter and fruity finish.
