Draft at the brewpub. My favorite of the visit. Bright golden. Active. Fruity and light, yet delivering a decent kick. Quite good. (#4282, 10/4/2011)

on tap at pisgah, cloudy hazy yellow belgian style strong ale. banana and bubble gum overtones,. bready yeast. decent lacing on glass. strong alcohol burn that just lingers. the warmer the beer got the sweeter it got and the spices came out.

Tap at pisgah - pours a clear gold with a white head. Aroma is rosin and spicy like clove, maybe? I can’t place it. Taste is fantastic, a little sweet with a lingering bready,creamy finish. Overall, this is fantastic! I wouldn’t have known this was almost 10% apv if they hadn’t mentioned it.

DiarmaidBHK (1392) - Pennsylvania, USA - JUN 19, 2011
Pours golden from large bottle bought at Bruisin’ Ales. Aroma smells of baking bread and apple pie. Sweet to the lips but not on the tongue. Balanced taste with baking spices on the tongue and a clean finish. Like a good Tripel it hides its 9.5% very well.

Bottle shared by The Other Dave. Poured hazy yellow color with an average frothy white head that lasted with good lacing. Moderate complex citrus and yeast aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium citrus sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. This is a good beer.
