3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 duff (5483) - St, Margarets, - AUG 21, 2002
UPDATED: JAN 17, 2003 Nice, fluffy head, doesn"t have the greatest lace or head retention, but there was a thin head, which stayed all the way too the finish. Slightly spicy nose, and also a bit of alcohol burn in the nose. First sip is slightly sweet, then leading into a bitter (slightly acid) finish, lots of warming alcohol on the finish (which is probably due to the gin they add, which i didn"t know they added until rating this beer right now), i don"t know if i liked it though, a bit too much raw alcohol.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 floydian1 (546) - FNQ, AUSTRALIA - MAY 31, 2012
From a 330ml bottle (exp 12/12). Appears clear golden in the glass with a medium white head and scanty lace. Nose is honey sweet golden malts with a light fruity hop presence and soft spiciness. I get none of the advertised juniper berries. Taste is quite sweet but pleasant with a nice Belgian style yeasty presence. Fullish bodied. Like a decent Belgian Blonde Ale.

Orange with a small pale head that disappears quickly. Aroma is peach, honeysuckle, juniper and hay. Flavour is of honey, juniper, chamomile. Slightly dry finish with a bit of a herbal aftertaste. Quite different but a little too flowery for me.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm, 11 July 2011) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, spicy nose with flowers, grass, some juniper twigs and something undefined herbal. Fruity, spicy taste with notes of citrus, mild spices and gentle jenever hints coming through towards the finish. Slightly more than medium body, fairly dry, with a grassy bitterness.

Golden and clear with a solid white head. Aroma has bread, winegum, spices, wheat and honey. Complex oily body full of delicate flavour. Aftertaste is quite dry and reveal more elements to this great beer. Very - almost too - easy to drink as well. An interesting and delicate beer. Too bad it’s pretty expensive.
