12 oz can. Pours a golden orange with a thin white head. Lots of subtle flavors in this one - apricot, coriander, clove, pepper. Alcohol is masked well. Good example of the style.

On tap at the brewery. Hazy orange yellow pour with a fluffy white head. Aroma is Belgian yeast, clove, a bit of banana. Pretty straightforward Belgian strong, but done really well. This was a tasty beer. Alcohol is hidden very well so also a dangerous beer.

Pours hazy gold into a Sam glass. Bright white head with good retention recedes leaving spider lacing to coat surface. Tropical fruit, caramel and resin aromas. Thick with sweet yeast and caramel upfront turning to biscuit before the lasting tropical fruit and citrus finish.

Can shared by mattyb83 pours a hazy golden with a small off-white head. Intense aroma, strawberry fruit roll-up, big honey, clove, apricot, and coriander. Taste is mellow honey, orange peel, and Belgian spice. Interesting aroma, taste not bad but BSA’s aren’t really my thing.

Can from Gianni! Thanks for these. Trying this side-by-side with the chardonneighbor of the beast. Hazy, golden honey in color with a small white head. Loads of honey, floral notes, apricot, candy sugar. Intense. Love it. Taste is fruity with more apricot and candy sugar, maybe a touch of honey, some pepper and cardamom. Not overly rich, nice full body, delicious. Best belgian style beer that comes from a can that I’ve ever had. Wow! I’m excited to see what the chardonneighbor is like.

12oz can shared with mattyb83. Pours nice light, straw colored orange with not much of a head. Aroma of hay, grains, candied sugar (think rock candy!), grass, and some sort of fruit(apricots). A lot going on in the aroma. Really intense. Light and clean for a golden, the only thing lacking in the body is some carbonation. Wish there was a little more. Flavors of honey, apricots, sugar in the raw, and bready yeast with just a hair of grass. A very well made beer!

Pours a copper gold with a thin head that clings to my kuhnhenn tulip. Aroma of Belgian yeast and pepper. Taste follows nose with too much sweetness. Nice silky mouthfeel. Not great but nice to try.

A nice golden body with nice frothy white head which faded to a thin coating. Some nice carbonation present. Aroma had strong bubblegum note, nice banana essence and some candied sugar. Malt base seemed the be biscuit malts? Flavor really had some interesting banana and bubblegum flavors. Some mild malt notes and a slight sweetness to it. There was a nice yeast quality to it and mild alcohol notes. A decent body, a little light on the tongue but c arbonation gave it some life and the sweetness gave it a slight stickiness. Nice.
