Draft at Tylers. Golden with a small white head. Nose is lightly fruity, dusty, yeast. Flavor is lightly sweet, some light diacetyl, lemon. Lightly dry mouthfeel with a bit of frutiness. Pretty ho-hum.

Bottle. Ambler golden deep brown. Nice carmel smell and color. Nothing excites you once you taste it. Pretty ordinary to me, not much of a belgian, but better then most macros

The sweetness in the aroma entices my desire. Solid copper with an appreciable white head. Tastes more like a corn-laden lager with sugar and accompanying sweetness than anything. Can’t appreciate it? Go home!

BLAH! The only thing that makes this beer a Belgian beer is the fact that it’s made in Belgium. Aroma was weak. Light malt, bubble gum and some caramel notes. Pour was a medium gold/light amber with a one finger off white head and plenty of rising bubbles. Taste was pathetic. Very thin and watery with the medium carbonation drowning out most of the beer’s flavor. So there’s not much in the front, other than water. After the swallow, there’s some light caramel notes with an almost ginger ale like aftertaste. All the things that make Belgian beer delicious are painfully missing.
