mike1977ok (1023) - NETHERLANDS - DEC 6, 2011
Aroma is quite floral and yeasty and has a hint of bitter orange. Mouthfeel is sticky sweet. Bitter, syrupy orange peel and a dry, bitter finish.

Metalchopz (1173) - Quebec, CANADA - DEC 5, 2011
Originally rated December 2005. Pours a mango-like juice colour with sediments all over, and nice and hazy. Beautiful off-white creamy head, with very long retention and good thick lace. The nose is pleasant with Belgian yeast and fruits. The mouthfeel is watery and carbonated. The taste is the same as the aromas, except milder. More yeast than bitterness. Not much afteraste, just clean. Still, a nice Belgian strong ale.

(330ml bottle thanks to Mora2000) clear medium gold with a thick yellow cream head. Nose is tart, tangerine, vinous. Taste of grape, alcohol, gold raisins and toasty. Creamy/oily body, decent full flavor linger.

Light malt aroma. Cloud red color with a small but thick off white head. Sweet and mildly sour beginning that slowly fades in the finish. Thick palate.
