Dogbrick (4531) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - DEC 27, 2007
This beer is a mostly clear orange-amber color with a medium thick off-white head that dissipates slowly. Thin spotty rings of lacing. The aroma contains yeast, malt, sour fruit and light spices. Medium-bodied with a nice spice/yeast character. Flavors of tart fruit, candi sugar, peppery spices and yeast are all present. The finish is fruity and yeasty and leaves a mild herbal hops aftertaste. This beer is enjoyable from start to finish.

bouteille de 11.2oz. bière blonde ambrée assez foncé et trouble, la mousse blanche est très diffuse et disparait rapidement, nez sucré, malté, épicé, assez invitant. bouche piquante, épicée, petit goût d’alcool, bonne bière de type tripel, mais moins bonne que la maredsous 10.

Pours a golden amber wih a thin foamy white head. Fruity aroma consisting of cherries, apple, honey, innamon and alcohol. Sweet tasting with hints of cheries, honey, apple, pear, maltiness and alcohol. A nice balance of sweetness, maltiness and alcohol with a slighlty bitter finish.

FatguyRacer (158) - Crownsville, Maryland, USA - DEC 3, 2007
750ml bottle. I had to use a corkscrew to get the cork out. It would not budge othewiser. Poured into a very large brandy snifter. Color was a nice translucent light carmel color. Not much of a head. Smells of banana and malt. heavy malty flavor and sticky feel on the palate. Im pretty buzzed from just half the bottle, but surprisingly the alcohol taste is not strong. Pretty good stuff.
