On tap at St. Veronus. Not a chock full of flavour on this one. Very clear appearance (unlike most belgians). Smell is of sugar and molasses. Mouthfeel is very thin and flavours of yeast and white sugar (oddly enough) appear on the tongue. Wasn’t too impressed. The quadrupel is leagues ahead of this one.

pours golden yellow with nice head that disappears quickly. very nice taste of fruit and yeast, which is the same as the scent. I would purchase this one again.

pour is medium golden with a strong aroma of alcohol, light fruits, and strong belgian yeast and spices. I got a lot of strong belgian spice which included banana, cinnamon, and some earthy tones. very malty flavors with some alcohol. good brew. would buy again.

(Bottle 33cl, SuperBest) Pours almost clear, dark amber with a medium, mostly diminishing, white head. Sweet flowery aroma with hints of honey. Sweet flavor of fruits and yeast. Medium bodied.

Bottled. Poured a deep vibrant orange with some small floaters making the beer appear to sparkle underneath a white head. As I smelled this beer I really couldn’t smell anything at all. At best I was able to pick out a hint of banana that may not even have been there. Really I just couldn’t smell any particular aroma in this one. Flavor was sweet belgian yeast with a dry finish. Farily carbonated with a bit of barn hay coming through in the after taste. Overall it was a very generic offering.

Bottle. Hazy burnt orange pour with a white head. Creamy, apricot laced aroma. Candi sugar and plenty of sweetness, spices. Some banana, hops in the distance. Apricots in the flavor also, but has a flat finish. Jammy and sweet finish, lightly bitter - dry and spicy. Not bad, but nothing great.
