Jun 30, 2004 The beer after releasing its grip on the dark green 750ml bottle sets in the glass a slightly hazy gold color with a massive bright white head that creamy in texture, with the resultant lace a thin slip to cover the glass. The nose is fruity, sweet and a slight yeast tone also noticed, lemon-lime crispness seals it off with the start is delightfully sweet, delectable are the malts, the top is moderate in its feel to the palate. Finish is biting in its acidity, the hops perfect in their spiciness, quite dry and long lasting aftertaste, and I must say this is my favorite Brasserie d’Achouffe beer to date.

Jan 31, 2004 33 cl bottle; love the painted label; sampled from a La Chouffe glass. Bright orange body with massive, super-stable head (when am I gonna get to drink it). All kindsa things going on in the glass, mysterious oil slicks, bubbling, clouds; I stare for minutes, entranced. Extremely yeasty, spicy, somewhat sour & farmy aroma; pungent. Light and sweet to the taste, low acidity, very quaffable; much more fruity than the strong nose would indicate, hints of vanilla and caramel towards the finish. No alcohol burn at all, very smooth and quaffable.

Jun 8, 2003 Dark golden color,small white head,Lightly malty aroma,but mostly i smellhop's and spice with a small hint of fruit,very small.Malty,hoppy taste with a spicey fruity tone to it as well,with the fruit being a mildly bitter lemon and the spice being undescribable.The alcohol never really makes an appearance,until you have had a little more then a sip then you feel it.The after taste is spicey and fruity with a slight bitter orange at the end.this is a pretty decent brew and well worth having more,but would be ard to drink in large amounts.

Aug 2, 2002 Sweet fruity aroma. Quite sweet at the beginning with a bitter & sour finish. Also liked that it was not too spicy. Alcohol is evident in the aftertaste but that’s ok on a cold night.
