3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
(Bottled, 0.75l) Hazy amber with a medium, lacy head. Very fruity aroma with tart hints. Yeasty-fruity, neutral-malty, peppery-spicy flavor with a hint of acidity. Medium-bodied with slightly foamy carbonation. A balanced and spicy, true-to-the-style Belgian Ale.

Rare Vos pours a hint of orange. There is some fruit in the smell. It is a crisp taste of spice.

Bottled
Hazy orange color, small beige head. Fruity, yeasty aroma (peach, grapes, banana). Crisp, foamy carbonation. A bit alcoholic and spicey. Quite typical Belgian strong ale made in USA: yeasty and fruity.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
3/28/08 notes: bottle. Pours a clear golden amber. Head is short lasting and small. Strong carbonation. Flavor is a nice mixture of honey, yeast, nutmeg, cinnamon, and some fruit. Finish is dry, a mellow blend of flavors. Overall, solid and interesting, but I don’t understand the huge carbonation.

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Slightly cloudy light amber beer with a medium sized bubbly head. Quite weak aroma, tangerine, lemon, coriander and a touch of nutmeg. Sweet clean flavour with malt and citrus. Unspectacular but a very pleasant drinker.
4.8 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
This is one “Sly Fox”. It has a beautiful red/ orange amber color with a hazy body. Tiny bubbles form a thick foamy head that has a light tan color. An inviting aroma of sweet floral orange and spices mingle with doughy yeast and malts. On the tongue there is a complex sweet, fruity and spicy character with caramel malts and doughy yeast mixing with dark cherries, spices and orange peel. Hops add some light bitterness and dryness to the finish. The palate is full bodied with just the right amount of carbonation. It is smooth and very drinkable. Outstanding!
