Jun 1, 2006 Boy, this one was fantastic. Nice brown colored ale with a mild Belgian style sweetness (and also some bitterness). Some very low levels of vinegar in the aroma and flavor, but not to that of a typical flemish sour. Head was solid, but the lacing maintained itself throughout the drink. I’ll get another one of these whenever I get the opportunity. Edit: My third tasting of this on draft in Canada resulted in a carboard type after taste. Not sure if that is typical for the Canadian version (if there is even such thing) or just the freshness of that keg. I’d drop my ratings if that happened again. But don’t worry (yet another update), it hasn’t happened again, many times a good deal in the US at The Half Moon in Kennett, PA!

Apr 29, 2006 On tap at Hopleaf. Poured a deep hazy brown with a short layer of beige head. Nose carried an abundance of darker malts... brown sugar, toffee, and some toasty fruits. Smooth toasty brown sugar, darker fruits, and other dark malts in the flavor. Lower carbonation provided a cola-like feel... felt just OK. Sweet, toasty, malt finish. Nice brew, but nothing spectacular.
