From a year-old bottle. Pours a clear gold with a foamy whit head and lacing. It has a nice aroma of bread, malt, with a bit of dark fruit. The flavor is fairly light with a dark fruit and sweet malty middle leading to a light, sweet finish over a light-medium body.

3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 BiddleBrau (766) - Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 8, 2013
Wonderful gold color with thin white head and a faint haze. Spicy nose, hint of alcohol. This starts with a very sharp, crisp bite on the tongue that coats to the back. Hops bite but there is a hint of malt to balance although it’s in the body and not so much as a ’malty’ sweet flavor. The bite is accentuated by the carbonation that steps on when you drink this. It’s clean and crisp but I could used a hint more malt here... not much, just a hint.

4.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 spacemonster (20) - Igo, California, USA - MAR 14, 2013
This is a delicious, fruity but not too fruity delight. I’m not going to go on and on about it, but make no mistake. This is a very nuanced American take on the Belgian style. Yet it is It’s own beast. Delicate notes of herbal delight intermixed with a yeasty home baked bread character that just really pleases my palate. A great beer to start the evening off with. Spice and clarity. Very very good.
