Bottle thanks to Rciesla. Dark amber pour with tan head. Wheat, spices, sugar and slight fruit aroma. Yeast, fruits, sugar, spices and slight alcohol flavor. Great beer.

Bottle. Pours a amber brune body with a tan creamy head. Aromatic wheat character with hints of coriander belgian cane sugars, spicy yeast, banana and bubble gum notes. Sweet with a light warming. Nice brew.

Poured orange/amber in color with a large, off-white/tan head that diminished but lasted throughout. Cloudy. Sparkling. Full of tiny particles throughout. Flavor is slightly sweet and lightly bitter. Tastes of yeast, malts, slight spice, slight banana, light vegetables, light caramel, slight clove, slight pepper, and a hint of vanilla. Medium body. Tingly, then dry texture. Average to lively carbonation. Lightly sweet, lightly bitter, yeast, light caramel, and light spice finish is dry.

Julio’s Belgian Beer Festival. Sample. By the time I got to this one I was seeing double. Rating it to keep track but don’t have any particulars. Wrote down in my notes that I really liked this one so will followup with future tastings.

After the beer was served in the glass there was found a lasting quantity not wall adhesive white foam collar which was fine and evenly of structure. The beer also contained much carbonic acid in the glass. The beer has a thick amber color and a sweet taste. The after tast of the beer is light hoppy bitter with a caramel touch. This beer smells fruity.

Copper color and a tall white head. Aroma has sweet malt, yeast, and dried fruit. Surprisingly sweet flavor, more sugar, sweet malt, and just a little hops. A little plant/flower character. Thick, sticky, and fulled palate.

Pours turbid orangy copper with huge, 4-finger fluffy white head. Nose is bready caramel malt, spicy fruity yeast, mild hops. Tastes very complex, with a smooth, velvety palate, and flavor hints of caramel malt, cobwebby yeast esters, brown sugarm some floral and orange flavors. This one was very good.

8 oz. bottle poured to a Czech-pils glass at Lunar Brewing, Villa Park, IL. The color was a hazy, orange/amber with a lasting, billowy, orange/tan, head and clingy foam lacing. The aroma was light mid-fruit, a hint of orange zest, and some soft Belgian Pils. The flavor added to these a little spice and low bitterness. Medium to light body. A tripel-light

Light sweetness, not terribly carbonated. Soft, spice, fruity zest. Nothing stand out but a very solid belgian and quite drinkable. Enjoyable.
