Orval

Cloudy amber color. Aroma is of big time yeast, grain, and slight banana in the undertones. Taste is of yeast, bitter, and slight citrus. Has a yeasty bitterness in the end.

Bottle. Dark gold pour with very abundant pillowy head. Aroma is strangely tart and funky, red fruits (cherries), some herbal hay-like aromas. Taste is rather grassy, herbal with some good bitterness with a malty background. Aggressive but enjoyable carbonation gives a distinctive mouthfeel.

330ml Bottle served at 12 degrees. Pours with a massive head, copper orange colouring. Lacing down the sides. Hoppy aroma, slight bitter taste almost horsy but very pleasant. an excellent ale to start my ratebeerian tally.

Bottle from Woodys in Franklin, TN. Pours a cloudy amber with a monster white head. Aroma is sweet dark fruits and brown sugar. Flavor is pepper, very slight bitterness, and citrus. Medium-light mouthfeel, pleasantly sticky. Overall I really liked it...definately lived up to the hype...but I gotta say its in the same ballpark as Delirium Tremens and I just dont think it holds up (and neither does Duval).

Bottle, 33cl. Pours an unclear orange/amber beer with a large offwhite head. The aroma is sweet and fruit with notes of spices. The flavor follows the nose. The palate is bitter and has a slight acidic note. Overall a great beer.

Bottle Pours coppery orange with a big white head. Aroma is citrus, funky, and sour. Flavor is lightly bitter, a bit of spice, with a dry tart finish. Very lively carbonation.

Golden amber in color with an incredible amount of carbonation and lacing. Flavor is an interesting balance of sour and bitter that is pleasantly dry on the palate.

Bottled on 22/04/2009, best before 22/04/2014. Poured a brilliant orange with a tall, fluffy, off-white head that is lasting and had good lace. Aromas of spice, citrus, yeast, and fruit. The flavor found spices, fruit, and a light alcohol backing. Medium body, dry, and warming.
