3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20I hope this is the right beer, because my bottle had a green label, unlike the one to the left. Anyway, pours cloudy gold with a huge white head. A lot of carbonation. Looks and smells like a tripel, but with apples and some wheat aromas. The taste is the same; sweet with candied sugar and yeast, with a cider bite and hefe-like undertones. Very light, but the apples get more prevalent as the beer warms, to the point of getting a little nauseating. Its worth trying, but I don’t think this will be making a return appearance in my fridge.

Thanks to Dr. Bill for sharing at a gathering he held at his house.
It poured a yellow color with a foamy white head. The flavor had a lot of apple juice-like notes in it.

Maybe it’s because of all the big beers that I was sampling at the Vintage Ale Fest that caused this to seem relatively uninteresting, but it struck me as a light, spritzy golden Belgium ale with no remarkable qualities. Very light and sugary sweet with soft malts and a dash of apples, it had a light yet crisp finish. The strong abv was certainly well masked. Okay. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/events-detail.asp?eve Beer Fest at Delilah’s, Chicago, IL 02/25/2006<font size=-1>

Rating from old notes. Don’t remember the date, but I had it with Goldtwins, so maybe around March 05. Pale clear gold pour with white head. Big aroma of apples. Flavor was tart apples and corriander. Light body and dry, with a bit of a bitter finish.
