3.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap and bottle at house of brews in NYC. Malty sweet aroma, caramelly hazy appearance. Taste is smooth and spicy but overwhelmingly one dimensional. Aftertaste is awkward. I was expecting a bit more from ommegang but that being said not a bad beer.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Looking for a nice brew to drink on a hot summer afternoon. This is one I will drink again and again. Light golden color with a slight head. Flavor is mild, but has a mild, but nice aftertaste. It is crisp and clean! Definite fruity undertones, with a little hops.

I wasn’t that impressed with my first taste but my impression favored with each swallow
Its finish is dry and lightly tart, its not especially malty or hoppy allowing the spice character to ring

Not my favorite offering from Ommegang, but an easy drinking brew overall. Pours a hazy orange with fluffy white head. Fruity aroma with a hint of spicy yeast. Mild flavor in tis one, mostly bread and yeast notes on the tongue. Not much carbonation on the tongue, crisp, clean finish.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap o lot lately at the local. Lighter body than I remember. Unclear reddish brown with a fluffy head. Aroma of caramel and some yeasty spice. A bit of hop presence but a basic easy drinker overall.

750 ml., Exhuberant head, very long lasting, nice coloration, mild nose, well balanced flavors, but mild to my palate. I don’t get the spiceness mentioned by others. My least favored of the three Ommegangs I have had. Interestingly, when I made sure to get all the yeast, the complexity, not unexpectedly, went way up.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle (75 cl) at Haket, Göteborg, Sweden. Beautiful amber to mahogny colour, large off-white head. Fruity aroma with peaches apricots, and tangerine, some spicy notes as well. Medium bodied and smooth mouthfeel. Good balance, perhaps a bit short finish.

Amber-red in the glass. Nice head lasts a while. Bready in the taste and body, which I like. Some spiciness, too; coriander notes, maybe. Nicely balanced beer, and another fine product from Ommegang.
