Apr 10, 2008 750ml bottle. This is going to become one of my favorite backup Belgians - when I can’t think of anything else I want to try, and am not in the mood for something more adventurous. It’s like something from Unibroue (think La Fin du Monde) except with the requisite complexity of a real Belgian. Aroma of light, sweet malts and fruits. Drinks like a champagne - the alcohol is well-hidden, and it certainly has a dry finish. Great stuff.

Apr 7, 2008 Hazy bright golden, big bubbly head that fades fairly quickly. Sweet doughy and fruity yeast aroma. Sweet malty palate with a fruity yeastiness and mild spiciness. Medium bodied, with just-right carbonation, and a dry finish. The alcohol is very well hidden. I usually find that many belgians become too sweet for me with their candy-sugar maltiness, but this remained srinkable and enjoyable for the entire 750ml (i did share it with Parksy mind you).

Apr 7, 2008 Hopsey and fluffy-headed - reminds me of Duvel though this is slightly more bitter and woody. The alcohol could be very dangerous as you can’t really taste the 10.5%.

Apr 2, 2008 Hazy golden pour with a thin white head; slightly malty aroma with ripe fruit and a little alcohol. Sweet bready taste with well balanced malt and hops, spices and big ripe fruit.. Complex. Nice carbonation and medium mouthfeel, excellent beer!

Mar 31, 2008 pours an orange-ish color with off white head. Smells of fruit/ sweet oranges and clove. The taste was hoppier than I expected. Good balance but definitely a full flavored beer. Overall it was a good beer but I don’t think it was totally my style.
