3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 IslandHaole (1053) - Yokosuka-Shi, Kanagawa-Ken, JAPAN - FEB 9, 2004
A nice dark amber color, clear for a Belgian. Small head but good lacing. Has that fruit filled pastry scent common with Belgians. Like an apple cinnamon danish with almond slices sprinkled over it. A warming spicyness on the lips, like biting a slice of fresh ginger. Sweet but not cloying. All said, it's a solid brew.

Bottle from Mane Liquor. Pours a murky amber with a tall white head sitting atop. Dark fruits and malt make up the bulk of the aroma. Some caramel coming through in the taste. Not a fan of this one. Felt like it was over carbonated leaving a sticky and bubbly feeling in the back of the throat. Not my kind of beer
