Awesome brew all around. Pours a cloudy orange colour with a full white head. lots of wheat charachter, soft aromas of clover and a sweet mouthfeel. It finishes really unique, almost like the sweetness retracts itself and then you want more.

Tap. Pours with a murky brown color and a small head. Has some fruity aroams but little of the yeast notes.
Flavor is also more grainy than yeasty, some dark fruit and some caramel. It is medium bodied and has a nice finish.

$5.25 for a 16oz. serving at the Crabapple Taco Mac location. Served, oddly enough, with a gigantic orange slice.
Appearance: Pours a clear, medium copper body
Smell: Aroma of toasted malts with unripened bananas, candied dried fruits, and coriander.
Taste: Toasty, bready maltiness with a restrained sweetness. Fruity and a bit flowery. Coriander and maybe even a cinnamon stick tossed in. Tempering hop bitterness. Pervasive, sour yeastiness throughout. Dry, yeasty finish.Banana lingers into the aftertaste.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Moderate carbonation.
Drinkability: A fine, easy-drinking brew from Ommegang. Certainly worth a try. Oh, and the orange slice? It was delicious.

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 crowderm (315) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - MAY 23, 2008
Decent golden appearance. Nice carbonation, solid head. Aroma is slightly bitter/fruity. Flavor is kind of a let down. Far too light...I think the right notes are there, tart apple, citrus, spice, but they just aren’t prominent enough. Decent beer.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 rcasta (686) - EL SALVADOR - MAY 23, 2008
Rare Vos is flemmish for "Sly Fox," and the name of one of Brussels’ great cafes. It has a sweetly fruity malt character and yeasty spiciness. A fine dose of yeast permits the beer to mature and mellow in the bottle.
