TheJester (694), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Aug 14, 2007 750 mL bottle. Translucent amber-brown with a small head. Aroma of grasses, sweet citrus, spice, and maybe yeast(?). Flavour is a bit on the sweet side, but it’s smooth. Sweet citrus and spice carries through to the flavour, along with candi sugar and some bready malt. Little hops or alcohol presence. Smooth, but quite heavily carbonated. Quite drinkable. Worth another try. cbeers21 (563), Miami, Florida, USA Aug 13, 2007 Clear amber/red with sizeable head. Yeasty fruity malts, and wheaty apple, caramel scents build a solid aroma. Body is lighter and a bit acidic. Yeasty, a bit sour and wheaty, this brew provides a quiet fruity body with a muted, distant and lingering spice quality. It smelled a bit better than it tasted, and it fell a bit flat in the finish. Still a pretty good brew Goodgrief (1144), Middletown, Delaware, USA Aug 11, 2007 Those Ommegang guys know how to make a beer. This is my least favorite among the Ommegang’s offerings, but still a good beer. Light brown color with HUGE foamy head that lasted throughout. Belgian yeasty taste with a little fruity zing to JamesD (192), Centreville, Virginia, USA Aug 10, 2007 Very lovely yeasty, hoppy aroma and a wonderful copper color. The flavor is malty and fruity with a hoppy and subtly spicy aftertaste. Light and refreshing with just enough carbonation. nramsburg (200), New York, New York, USA Aug 8, 2007 This is a nice beer, but hardly fantastic. Yeasty, but not too much on the mouth. Somewhat tart but also carmelly. In relation to Three Philosophers and Hennepin, I find this somewhat of a letdown. bdigital (585), Ft Wayne, Indiana, USA Aug 7, 2007 Cloudy, puddle water appearance with a small white head. Flowery, fruity aroma consisting of some star fruit and other citrus. Was able to pick up on some candied sugar and tame malt in the nose as well. Bubbly mouth feel yet smooth. Roasted malt, tart fruit, and sweet bread dough flavor throughout. IrishBoy (2685), Bakersfield, California, USA Aug 6, 2007 12oz bottle from puzzl, thanks Andy! Nose of caramel and spices, with a hint of Barnyard; lightly hazedcopper-gold with a big, but short-lived yellowish head; flavor of cloves, caramel, sweetness, and a hint of hops in the finish. BrewDad (2363), Olympia, Washington, USA Aug 6, 2007 12oz Bottle
A deep copper color with a light head. This had a deep rich belgium flavor and was deep in malt character. A light sublte spicness this was a nice beer.
