| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 11, 2009 Draft. Pours hazy light orange with medium white head that laces the glass. Aroma of fruit, citrus, spice, and malt. The same characteristics make up the flavor along with yeast and alcohol. Medium body and pleasant mouthfeel. A solid, delicious Belgian. grebs (71), Ohio, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 10, 2009 A malty, fruity beer. Prominent flavor of dark fruit. Though billed as hoppy, I get none. Fruitiness and late orange. Lingering flavor of fruit and alcohol dissipates quickly. Head disappears quickly as well. However, the flavor is magnificent and outweighs these (minor) detractors.

Nice spicy and estery flavor from the yeast in combination with the malts and probably sugars. A nice touch of alcohol as it warms. Nice big head that lingers, too. iamqueensblvd (192), , Iowa, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 20, 2009 Pours a cloudy apple juice-like color with a medium off-white frothy head which fades slowly leaving lots of webbed lacing. Aroma is clove, banana, light citrus, and Belgian spice. Taste is much the same. Your typical Belgian. kidmartinek (975), austin, Texas, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jul 15, 2009 Obnoxious excessive foaming when you pour it... welcome to belgians! Holds a sub 1-inch head for 4 minutes at least. Still has good carbonation when all the fuss settles down. It comes in one of those annoying bottles that drips on the pour no matter what you do. The aroma is spicy with cinnamon, allspice and yeast smells. Color is slightly cloudy amber. The taste actually starts off bland, and quickly changes to a malt dominated spicecake flavor. The consistency begins watery and quickly fizzes by the time it reaches the back of the tongue. Finish tastes like apple juice and orange peel with a little sweet spice.
