Bottle. Pours a hazy golden yellow color. Uncorked bottle had aroma of sweet apples and slight spice. Lots of tiny bubbles make for a nice palate. Taste of yeast, clove, spice with a very smooth finish. Beautiful beer on a hot summer night. Would buy again.

Aug 16, 2008 Murky straw hue, fluffy white head gradually dissipates. Aroma is sweet light fruits, yeast, bread and grains, slight citrus, hops, and alcohol. Flavor is initially light malts and subtle fruits, some spice and pepper creep in along with drying hops, yeast and alcohol apparent in the quick finish. Palate is full and thick with lively carbonation. Overall a decent Belgian (Duvel clone?) with a good balance of malts, yeast, light hops and spices (more saison-ish than strong ale), but nothing too unique here compared to Tomme’s other beers.

Aug 16, 2008 Bottle. Amber beer with a whitish head. Nice yeasty, malt aroma with some spice. Maltys, yeasty, light lemon flavor. Medium body. Refreshing. Lingering yeast, spice, and malt. A bit more fruitiness than Duvel without the spice.

Aug 15, 2008 Bottle. Clear golden color with a broken thin layer of white head. Sweet aroma, honey, orange peel, Belgian yeast, herbal bready notes, but mostly dominated by sweetness and yeast. Sweet grainy and herbal taste, mild sharpness to the start, dry finish.
