Jul 22, 2009 Draft at the Falling Rock Taproom in Denver. Cloudy yellow, fruity in aroma, this Belgian Golden is so flavorful with fruit and spice and has a nice yeast flavor along with some biscuit malt. This like all RR offerings not only compare, but out-do most of their Belgian counterparts. A wonderful beer.

Jul 22, 2009 Decent belgian that’s very traditional and I guess a bit uninspired. Warm soft palate that’s great and feels fluffy on the swallow, but the flavors are all ordinary banana, clove, corriander, etc. It’s well done and a nice beer, but I’ve had this beer a hundred times from other brewers, and at $9 a bottle it’s just a tad underwhelming.

Jul 20, 2009 Sampled during Dark Lord Day 09 back in April at table 1. Pours a semi-clear golden orange brew with an average sized off-white head that slowly dissipates. Aroma of Belgian yeast, bread dough some candi sugar and a hint of honey. Taste is fruity, lightly carbonated, medium bodied, with flavors of golden grain malt, yeast, some candi sugar mild spice and vanilla. Finish is semi-dry with a lingering yeast and candi sugar aftertaste.

Jul 15, 2009 Bottle batch 41 from 08 sometime? enjoyed 7.15.09. Pours a clear glowing orange golden with a lovely dense creamy fine frothy white head. Quite similar to the Alesmith Horny Devil I had last night. Aroma shows some oxidation, some light citrus, candi sugar, some fruity, Belgian yeast, doughy. Flavor follows, like an abbey triple, doughy, yeasty, very distant fruitiness, a bit of banana, alcohol, vanilla, candi sweetness at first but finishes quite dry, slightly earthy, hops in the finish and aftertaste, with a little alcohol bite. Medium/full bodied with a much lighter mouth-feel, strong carbonation, fizzy with a softer bite, ubiquitous, dry and crisp feeling. This is a better crafted beer than the Alesmith but I think I would rather drink the Alesmith.
