Elizavyeta (110), Minnesota, USA Mar 30, 2008 Tall and frothy, this amber has a particularly light and earthy aroma with a deep, nearly mahogany hue.
Actual flavor is rich and sweet with prevalent notes of fennel, sweet peas, yeast, oats, and nutmeg with a long finish.
Due to its sweet nature, enjoy as a digestif with a slice of fruit tart. daknole (2810), Plantation, Florida, USA Mar 20, 2008 Yes they did it again. This brewery has a good touch in making several beer styles and this is no exception. Malt flavor with some hints of fruit and sweetness. Love the yeast finish. illinismitty (1790), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Mar 17, 2008 Bottle at Cafe Margot in Nashville, TN. Pours orange with a white head. Aroma of belgian esters and sweet wheaty malt. Flavor profile has a subtle complexity. I picked up flavors of honey, pale wheat malt, yeast, exotic fruits, cinnamon, and caramel.. Without looking up the style, I thought this would be a Biere de Garde. The bitterness is well done, with a slight lean to the aggressive side of the scale. There is a nice amount of residual sweetness. Finish is semi dry and yeasty. Good beer. robforbes (1083), Bremerton, Washington, USA Mar 13, 2008 purchased at 99 bottles in federal way, washington.
pours a light orange with a medium size foamy off-white head that dissipates to a thin head and hangs out, very good lacing.
smell of sweet fruits, banana, yeast, touch of spice.
taste is fizzy, slight fruit, touch caramel, touch spice, some bitterness in the end, leaves mouth on the dry side. Collint (452), Sylva, North Carolina, USA Mar 12, 2008 12 oz bottle. Poures a yellowish orange with a thin head. Tons of yeast floating around, too much for me. Taste like a Belgian with sweet citrus and yeast. I gave this one such a low rating because of the over powering of the yeast. TikiE (360), Sylva, North Carolina, USA Mar 12, 2008 Pretty good belgian ale. Pours a hazy orange color with a thin white lacing. Has a nice kick of alcohol and yeast in its taste that lingers on the palate. Ritterkreuz (179), Seneca Falls, New York, USA Mar 9, 2008 Ok, from the bottle I thought it would be a lot better then it was, but I found it to be very average. Mild spiciness with a bit of fruit, the latter of which is present in the aroma. ElGaucho56 (386), USA Mar 8, 2008 Draft @ BSP, Atlanta. Pours a nice golden hue with dense creamy white head. Nose is perfumy, with hints of cinnamon, almonds, grassy hops. More light spiciness on the palate, smooth creamy lighter malts, ending moderately dry with a solid herbal bitterness and a wheat malt background. Decent.
