BrewDad (2363), Olympia, Washington, USA Nov 8, 2007 22oz Bomber - Gravity Room - Olympia, WA.
Aroma – Deep malty aroma with a huge Belgian yeast aroma.
Appearance – Hazy, Amber color with a thin head
Flavor – A great Belgian flavor with the malts ans spices and Belgian yeasts. Not too fruity and had a deep bready flavor
Palate – The bready flavor was also a breasy feel slick and dry in the finish.
Overall –This was a good Belgian to drik had some great character and flavors. I liked this Belgian more than others did not have a off Belgian flavor that most have.
beerbuzzmontreal (2909), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Nov 6, 2007 Pours a cloudy blonde color with a medium white head. Very pleasant aroma of noble hops, yeast and spices. Very good flavor of noble hops, yeast and spices with a dry, bitter finish. The body is light to medium while the carbonation is moderate. This is a very good, refreshing, sharp, belgian ale, Tomme Arthur is a master. AgentSteve (1334), SF Bay Area, California, USA Nov 3, 2007 Poured a hazy yellow orange tone. Nose was a bit musty, with a two finger foamy off white head. Flavor was yeast with quite a bit of spice and clove. Not a lot of flavor here, though. A bit bitter from the middle through the end. Just O.K. thegreat78 (32), San Marcos, California, USA Nov 2, 2007 Decent bready malts, a rather full mouthfeel - really hits the the entire mouth with flavor. A big rush of hops - flavor and bittering. The yeast flavors provide more balance against the hop than the malts, but I found the beer to have enough malt to hold up. Long fresh hop finish. Fresh cut grass, a bit of citrus. The hops tasted freshly harvested, maybe the label is effecting me....but that fresh hop flavor really came through. As with so many of Tomme’s beers - complex, flavorful and perfect beer for rish cheeses and crusty bread.
pantani (1895), Salinas, California, USA Oct 28, 2007 Aroma is lightly spicey, with citrus, and a light hoppiness. Taste is much the same as the aroma, fairly hoppy for a belgian style. Storm (2685), Amager, Denmark Oct 28, 2007 Bottle. Golden clear colour with a nice white head. Aroma of yeast and spices. Flavour of spices, citrus and yeast. Not bad at all. IrishBoy (2686), Bakersfield, California, USA Oct 27, 2007 750ml bottle; nose of flowery citrus hops; lightly hazed dark gold with a medium straw haed; flavor is hop bitterness, lemon, and a slight bit of caramel. Not Lost Abbeys best! Tastes like a mediocre IPA. pantanap (1323), Chicago, Illinois, USA Oct 26, 2007 Updated: Dec 11, 2007bottle....appearance: orange-brown hue with a thick/fluffy white head. very much resembled an ipa in nature.....aroma: crisp, hoppy citrus nose.....taste: light medium body, somewhat like a lighter belgian ale with a nice citrus bitterness. some wheat qualities come into play as well.
