3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle at home. Pours a hazy golden color with an extremely thick, rocky and creamy white head. Impossible to drink within 10 minutes after pouring without stuffing the head in my nose. Aroma is spicy, fruity, somewhat alcoholic and some malts are present. Intense fruity flavor with spices, yeast and coriander. Some bitterness and a little sweetness. Well balanced and the alcohol is well hidden in the taste. Great creamy texture and extremely well carbonated. Very nice Belgian Ale.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. Light yellow color with a white head. Very light aroma of hops and citrus fruit coming through. Citrus malt flavors that are balanced well with sweetness, alcohol, and pepper spice. A decent brew.

750ml bottle shared by Mike. Bright clear golden yellow. Frothy white head with decent lace. Perfume, spruce, dough, lime, and sugar in the nose. Very subtle flavors of sugar and tropical fruit. Smidge of alcohol character. Light body. High carbonation. Dry finish. Very easy to drink.

I really think that this style is getting over done, or at the very least, the style should have some subcategories. This is not the same as the Ommegang I just had- two different beers entirely. Was pleasent enough, but not stellar. I will try again though.

UPDATED: MAR 5, 2008 Hmmm. Good beer, but not as good as others in the same style. Tried it at the12 hour Belgian beer partyin Carlsbad, CA. Possibly the best beer tasting ever,with 70 bottled rare and expensive beers and 20 on draft. 7474,14:3.6
Tried again as a sample from alohaC at the Pizza Port bottle shop. A Belgian triple-ish. Some corriander in the aroma. Leans sweet. A little over carbonated. Mixed small and microbubbles. Delicious. 8,4,8,4,16:4.0
