2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
The guy who scored this a 4.3! Seriously? A Duvel is a 4.3. Pours amber from tap without much aroma. Not a lot going on tastewise although you get some caramel maltiness on the finish. Not my favorite style granted but this one seems to be playing fairly safe.

On draught at the brewer. Perfectly copper in hue. Light wispy head leaves light spiderweb lace. Faint grainy aroma. Some metallic flavors and biscuit flour finishing with a very English ESB hop combo. Some tannins intermingle as well. Light body with some decent carbonation. Decent.
4.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Sampler, at Lancaster brewing in Harrisburg Pa. location. Pours a clear reddish copper with light visible carbonation and just a thin ring of head. The nose is toasty malt, some light hops, and a touch of fruitiness. Pretty flavorful for the style, a little sweet up front, more bitter towards the back. Some dry toasty malt, a little grainy. Mouthfeel is fairly clean and light with soft fizzy carbonation. Pretty decent, it thinned out a bit the more I had, but it was very drinkable. Great beer
