Bottle courtessy of EDA. Brown, hazy, nice tan head. Candy fruity aroma. Big malty fruity flavors. Malty fruity finish. Nice effort.

Thanks EDA. Deep amber in color with a nice head. Sweet, spicey aroma. Spicey hoppy flavor. Citrusy. Fruity. Malty finish. Full bodied. Very complex. Drinkable. Very nice beer.

Thanks to CaptainCougar. Poured a hazy golden amber with an off white head. Aroma is sweet, spicy, clove, and buttery diacetyl. Spicy flavor and medium body. For me diacetyl hurts a beer a good bit.

Pours a clear copper brown with a frothy off-white head. Has a musty, earthy, semi-sweet, peppery aroma with some butterscotch and cooked vegetables. Starts earthy, dry and bittersweet with a nicely spiced semi-tart balance. FInishes dry and mildly warming. A nice replica of the Belgian style but could be a little more complex with less diacetyl. Thanks to slob for the trade!

This red-bodied beer pours with a large head. The aroma is brightly citrusy along with a bit of banana. The malt in the flavor is fairly dry.

Amber to a deep red hue. Tall, frothy, off-white head. Huge butterscotch/diacetyl aroma. Alcohol, banana, pineapple, caramel. Moderately sweet, moderately acidic flavor becomes a lightly sweet, moderately acidic, lightly bitter. Slightly oxidized. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation, moderate alcohol. The bottom line is: too much diacetyl and alcohol.
