| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 27, 2009 I shared a bottle of this with BeerBaron617 - clearly my drinking/rating buddy. Anyhoo...my second Ommegang, and nothing bad about it. It poured a nice hazy orangy color with a nice thick off white head. It smelled very yeasty - like a bread shop. Tastes amazing!!! I love how fruity it is! It is really carbonated, and super fruity, leaving a juicy sensation in my mouth. A bit of an odd aftertaste, but not enough to put me off too it. Yay for Ommegang!

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jun 27, 2009 Shared this with MereLikesBeer. Poured a hazy dark orange with small offwhite head. This stuff was great, maybe not as good as the abbey ale. I do like the mildness of this beer, I could totally drink this with a hearty meal, or even a dessert. Very good brew. Cheers!

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 19, 2009 750ml bottle. Pours a cloudy amber-orange body with a two-finger width, beige, foamy head that dissipates quickly and leaves some nice lacing. Aroma is sweet toffees and caramels with a bit of an apple juice wheat smell. Some peaches, pears, apricots, nuts, toasted cookies, and a light yeasty earth. Flavor starts with some sweeter caramel malts before quickly moving into a peach/pear/apple cider with a touch of toasted toffee. The middle has a bit of earth with plenty of caramel and some nuts before yielding to a moderately fruity bitterness, cider, yeast, toffee finish. Very dry with a moderate lingering bitterness and some lightly toasted toffees, fruit, and a soft earthy spice. Palate is light to medium bodied with a light carbonation. Overall, a pretty solid beer all-around. I like the flavor in that its sweet, but moderately bitter and has a nice spicing/cider tartness. Very enjoyable. curly (575), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
