Bottle. Orange/gold with a disappearing head. Aromas are sweet caramel malts with yeast and some banana. Spicy with cloves and some belgian wit character. Flavours are caramel and yeast with sweet fruitiness. Has a nice foaming mouthfeel. Pretty good.

Flaske: Fin uklar orange øl, med et livligt men dog ikke blivende skumhoved. Duften er af friske frugter, men dog meget svag. Smagen er fin og en smule krydret, men dog ikke mindeværdig. Udmærket øl men klart et forsøg på at gøre den for alle.

Cloudy amber, with a loose head that laces well. Tart, wheat-like aroma, with some wild yeast as well. Sweet and heavy, with a tang that only the wild yeast can deliver. Seems the only thing they care about here in France is wine. But, fortunate the macro brewers are bringing in real beer - cheap. Now, if only they had refrigeration.

Deep amber/orange beer with a pungent, rich smell. Spices, banana, hops, malt and orange lead to a malty, alcoholic finish. Spiffing.

Cloudy, orange yellow in colour. Spicy body, alcohol heat in finish, and dry. Good beer, but not the best in this category.
