Wonderful color out of the bottle, sustained white head. Spiced but not over spiced, very fruity flavor and finish. This was a wonderful treat found at our local brewpub. (Canal Street Pub in Reading PA)

At the Taphouse at Queens Way. Gold with a big white head. Aroma of hops, coriander, orange peel, and grass. Taste includes many fruits and typical Belgian spices. Mouthfeel is a bit dry, but this is mostly due to the 8%. That said, this is very drinkable, and I finished my glass in less than 3 minutes.
