Average. Poured a mirky blone with a small head. Aroma very yeasty. Flavor was bland for the style, not terrible but didn’t stand out.

Jul 18, 2008 Pour is a sickly looking brown with a small white head. Aroma is heavily spiced with some fruit and a big helping of candi sugar. Flavor is a nice caramel with a decent dark fruit and again with the spice. Finish is dry and leaves a nice toffee on the tounge. This is a very decent and well though out beer.

Jun 24, 2008 Surprisingly good. Copper to orange haze. Fine head, but not too much of one. I taste apricots and a hint of smoke on the start of the bottle.
Nice delicate hops. Just a touch of Belgian bitterness, an ever so slight touch. Not too sweet. Moderate mouth feel. Nice blend of fruit, wood/smoke (a hint) and malt. Alcohol hidden very effectively. Very pleased. Lovely slightly dry finish. 750 ml cage cork. I will buy again. Nice!

Jun 16, 2008 750 ml, bbe 03-2009. Translucent orange-copper with a large head that spews out of the bottle and then runs away. Sour acid and slight fruit aroma. Sour metallic flavor hits the tongue first, then hard candy tastes: lemon, peach apple, grape. Later some burnt toffee, orange marmalade, oak, woody herbs, earthy mulled spices, and alcohol. Occasional toasted nut and char on the finish is very nice. Near-medium body is watery, tingly and dry.
