alobar (1006), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 20, 2008 Quite carbonated. Cloudy pale yellow color with a tall white head. Aroma of fruit-pear, banana with a sweet flavor of citrus, wheat, and soem hops. Exceptional! ogivlado (3036), Zagreb, Croatia Dec 18, 2008 Bottled 750ml. -While opening the bottle I have managed to cut my finger on broken bottle neck...Excellant... Huge head that was gushing from the bottle for few minutes. Light hoppy, yeasty and fruity with moderate carbonation, alcohol is noticable. My third beer brut and Deus is still my favorite.

Poured into a chalice a very nice cloudy golden pale yellow color, very nice carbonation, very nice two-finger plus creamy/foamy white head, with tons of nice sticky lacing left behind. The nose is malty with some yeast, spices, nice notes of grapes, pineapple. The taste is very nice, malts/yeast, spices, grapes/pineapple. Medium body, the finish is slightly dry/bitter, the alcohol is hidden very well. Very drinkable, this is a nice one. Thanks Anthony. JPDIPSO (4863), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA Dec 16, 2008
Hazy golden color with a taller off-white head. Fruity nose, with apricots and raisins. I catch a hint of menthol as well. Light pleasant pale malt start that leads to fruit and honey. A touch of esters show the strength. A hefty triple with the champagne yeast to lift a boost. The Lust surprised us and blew this one out of the water. Still a nice strong blond Belgian.
emacgee (1859), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Dec 16, 2008 Got to try a couple of samples of this at the WBF without paying the 30 dollars to buy a bottle, sweet. Pours sort of like a wit, pale hazy white with a crackling white head. The nose was sharp and strong, alcohol shows up, spicy, some oaky characters, yeasty. The flavor is also sharp and spicy, alcohol is present while not being overwhelming. Nice oak and yeast characters show up. Spicy carbonated palate. The Etruscan (304), Tuscany, Italy Nov 1, 2008 Thin foamy full lasting head. Cloudy golden colour. Aroma is malty, floral, fruity with pears, apples and banana notes. Aroma is fruity too with pineapples and light alcohol and metallic tones, ending in a balanced dry finish. Medium bodied. tarjei (1741), Bryne, Norway Oct 21, 2008 75 cl bottle at Hopheads´ fourth tasting - in my garage. Bought at Ølkonsortiet, Aalborg. Hazy yellow color, big foamy and lasting white head. Aroma is fruity with citric, yeast and all that Belgian stuff. Flavor is fruity, malty, moderate sweetness wtih warm alcohol and a dry finish. Fine carbonation. Very nice, but a bit short. The cork did the champagne-job all the way to the roof, and luckily didn´t hit anyones head one it´s way down. blutt59 (2042), Dallas, Texas, USA Oct 9, 2008 bottle, golden yellow color, huge long lasting head, nose is very strong sour, flavor is flat, old popcorn butter and sour fruits, a medium weak finish
