3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20Floral nose. Spices and Hoppy taste finish is bitter. Its not really,my cup of tea but is a well done beer.
3.6 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 8/20
Quite a tasty brew from such simple ingredients. A clean, yeast derived spicy aroma from the start. Flavor is a battle between citrus and biscuit. Hop bitterness is suprisingly high, but works well for this beer. Another nice offering from Pour Decisions.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at Stouts Pub pours a clear golden/yellow with a small white head. Aroma is pretty muted, sweet and malty. Taste of sweet caramel malts, bready, some citrus hop, and light Belgian spice. Drinkable, especially for a style I’m not a huge fan of so that is saying a lot for me, but nothing amazing.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
On tap at Stout’s Pub. Pours a golden color with white head. Straw, hay, earthy aromas. Straw, belgian yeast flavors. Meh
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
From tap. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is smoth fruity, citrusy and crisp hoppy. Bitter and crisp citrusy flavoured. Crisp hoppy and fruity finish.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Tap at Punch in Eden Prairie. Clear dark yellow pour, light carbonation and an aroma of light sweet malt/sugar. Flavor is also a hiny of candi sugar, a little pear and some nice fruity esters while finishing very dry. Nice beer, I’d buy this regularly if the price was right.
3.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap at Stout’s Pub. Pours bright gold with a quick little white head that fades quickly. Aroma is absolutely dead, I can not smell anything! If I guess, there may be some light lemon and malty yeast notes. Taste has light banana lemon and yeast along with malt. Palate is thin crisp and finishes dry. Pretty refreshing!

"Truly a beer spirited away from a monk’s table"? Well, no, because historically monks drank a much lower abv. Other "Patersbiers" brewed for the monks (fathers) themselves are usually lighter versions of the beers they now sell commercially. See, Petite Orval at under 4%. At any rate, this is a beer of some interest, with notable hopping and a lingering bitterness, and a good deal of citrus/spice. I described this to my friends (with whom I was sharing it) as flat pear cider, and at least one of them said, "yeah, that’s a good description". (growler from brewery)
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Light blond with no head. Little aroma. Flavor is mild a bit tart and cidery. Interesting but not amazing.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Tap at the brewery. Golden color with a tall white head. Very perfumy and floral aroma. Flavor of floral hops, light grain, and some honey. Light yeast character. Moderately bitter. Excellent
