stevoj (920) - Ramstein-Miesenbach, GERMANY - DEC 20, 2012
Pours like a tripel with a nice towering foamy head. Hops come to the forefront with a nice snap. Aroma gives away the high ABV of this beer. Taste, other than the hops, is malt, bread and a little spiciness. Me likey!

erickok (2282) - Tours, FRANCE - DEC 19, 2012
Clean golden body with huge white head; quite stable. Yeast aroma, apple, grapes and rough light malts. Pretending to be a Duvel or Chouffe but is far from these. Alcoholic taste, light sweet malts. Lots of carbonation. Not delicate or refined at all. Quality is okay just extremely unimaginative. Pass. (33cl bottle from a Carrefour in Tours)
