From the tap poured a light amber color with a good amount of head. Nice spicy malty flavor with a lingering finish.

Ordered this on accident at the bar. Been wanting to try it forever and didnt realize I ordered it. Thought I was getting the North Coast Le Merle. I’m a tard, I know. Pour was a hazy yellow with a light orange tint. Big fluffy white head and decent lacing. Smells sweet with fruit sugars and a little yeast. Taste is better than I thought, sweet, sweeter than most Belgian Pales that i’ve had. It was sweet to the lips with peach flavors, the yeast wasnt the star, the sweet tastes of orange stone fruits was delicious.

Bottle. Aroma is yeasty and musty, with fruits and herbs. Hazy orange body, white head. Flavor is moderately sweet, nicely fruity. Assertive finish.

TheHulk (479) - Lethbridge, Alberta, CANADA - MAY 2, 2009
A very plesant malt aroma with citrus. Hazy and golden, the light gets through but it’s still fairly thick. The malt taste is instantly complemented by all of the carmonation. It’s sort of a smooth carbonation, not at all like champagne or the Duvel I recently rated. Very, very plesant.

Looks great, pours hazy yellow with a thick white head. Sweet yeasty aroma. Lots of spice on the nose. In the mouth it is very sift and easy drinking. Very spicy and alcoholic flavour. Slightly citrus. This is a nice beer.

Soonah (1120) - Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA - MAY 1, 2009
The pour was clear golden copper with a thick white head and nice lacing. Plenty of effervescence. The aroma yeast, light tart fruit and malt. The flavor was yeast, apple, raisin, pepper and malt. The mouthfeel was thin, super clean and very refreshing. Easy drinking.

stankenk (130) - Maplewood, Minnesota, USA - APR 28, 2009
Pours a golden cloudy yellow with a ton of white head. The nose is sweet malts, sugar, coriander and pine hops. Comes across the palate smooth and sweet initially with some hops through nice sweetness and sp icy; finishes with a nice sugary sweetness that has just a hint of a spice.

Bottle... Poured golden yellow with a white head. Spiced, yeasty aroma and with cloves and grains. Very sweet and mellow. Not alcohol or other bitter notes. Sweet honey flavors with tropical fruits.
