COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Belgian Ales represent the height of the brewers' art. Sophisticated brewing techniques, yeast blends and unique flavoring elements have elevated the beers of Belgium to the status enjoyed by wine in other countries. PranQster follows in this tradition using a mixed culture of antique yeast strains that results in a floral nose, a full fruity flavor and a clean finish.

Light yeasty nose, a bit of funk, not unpleasant but not outstanding. Hazy golden pour. Taste is light, fruity, and wet. Slight dry note on the back end of the sip but overall not dry, quite enjoyable. Similar to a tripel but the alcohol is not very apparent. Fruity with notes of citrus and peach - mostly peach if I would have to say. Moderately complex for something lighter. If the finish were not muddled I would rate it higher.

From a bottle at Jim Palmers in the district. Excellent brew, could easily become one of my favorites. Poured in a tall beer glass, almost no head or lacing. Cloudy light golden yellow. Wonderful smooth slight carmel malt, slightly fruity flavor. No hops or bitter after taste. My favorite style Belgian. Similar to GI Matilda, but lighter in color and body, easily allowing you to enjoy several. I think it should rate higher. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Had on tap, good color. Cloudy. No head to speak of. No lacing of the glass. Taste is ok for style but a lot of corn flavor comes through that I'm not a fan of. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pale with a foamy head. Sweet and fruity aroma. Light/medium body has typical Belgian profile. Mild citrus, banana, and yeast flavors finish well.

Cerveja que merece ser experimentada, mas que sinceramente não me surpreendeu, pouco complexa e similar a muitas cervejas com menor fama.

You know when people fake an accent and you can tell, then there are those who can fake an accent and those who aren’t faking can’t tell. This is the latter, blindfolded I would been duped to it’s origins, like an illegitimate child. From smell to finish balanced clean flavorful. It’s why we drink.

RmmHronek (163) - Greensboro, North Carolina, USA - APR 26, 2013
Cloudy and blonde with wispy head. Nice Belgian aroma and good medium bodied flavor. I get a little bit of booze, banana/bubblegum with a little bit of grassiness from the hops.
