Flavor is banana, clove, citurs, bready malts, caramel and yeast. Smooth and refreshing on the palate. While not overly complex it great flavor and easy to drink. Nice begain style ale from the US.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 RichardW (861) - Carlisle, Cumbria, ENGLAND - JUL 10, 2011
Bottle, mybrewery.tap.com. Close your eyes and this is a Belgian born beer. Lovely bready, soft yeast aroma and touches of banana and herbs, fruity and warming on the tongue and a great amber orange appearance. It hints at bitterness, right at the very end, my only criticism would be that it seems to go a wee bit thin midway, but otherwise, a cracker.

This beer is nice. Kinda reminds me of La Fin Du Monde, only with a lower abv%. Nice balance of fruit and spice, with a smooth malt profile. Clean drinking and excellent.

From 12 oz. bottle into a shaker glass. Beautiful foamy and very long-lasting head, medium amber and moderately cloudy appearance, subtle aroma with an intense sweet malt taste, very full but not heavy mouth feel. Light to moderate carbonation, definite hops bite in several layers of notes, great smooth finish with a pleasantly understated aftertaste. A "do again," this is a great beer!
