Dec 13, 2005 Bottle, batch #5. Clear golden body under a thin white head. Lots of carbonation. Tangy aroma - beets, beef bullion, and a toasty caramel malt. Lots of puckery tannin-y flavors along with rhubarb in the flavor. Basic cookie malt underneath, finishes with musty hop leaf and bark. An interesting set of flavors in this guy but they’re not working for me.

Mar 9, 2003 A golden color with a small amount of white head. Smells yeasty. Tastes like orange peels with a side of yeast. Not a great beer, could be one of the worst I had at the pizza port belgian fest.

Mar 27, 2006 MN Ratebeer Winter Get Together. My first Russian River rating. Sour, fruity aroma. Hazy, pale yellow like a Belgian white. Nice lace. Very nice, fruity, wheaty, banana, effervescent. At only 7%, this was more like a Belgian White than a Belgian Strong.

May 20, 2002 Updated: Nov 4, 2003GABF: multiple samples. Wow! This has gone from terrible to terribly amazing. Love this new batch -- sparkling golden, citric twang, bright, bits of tobacco, aggressive and full bodied -- round and lightly creamy, slightly slick. Love the yeast components. Can't wait for the brewery to open.

Aug 26, 2006 Matt (drbayern) pops my cherry with this brewery by sending me a bottle of this. Golden colored pour, looks very similar to duvel. Smell is lemons, spices, yeast, citrus, and some hops. Taste is rich and flavorfull, full of coriander and fruits. Pretty damn good actaully, the first american brewer to get the beligan style beers right since allagash got it going several years ago. nice beer, too bad its not around these parts.

May 18, 2006 Clear golden hue with a small light head and thin lacing. Nose of apricot, orange peel, corriander, earthy yeast and pepper. The flavour was sweet malts, pear and a light citrusy touch. Subtle and enjoyable.

Jul 6, 2007 Updated: Feb 21, 2008Enjoyed at the csbosox tasting 7/3. 750ml Bottle mail ordered from South Bay (Imperial Beach, CA). Pour is almost clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma is earthy Belgian yeast with not much else. Taste is very smooth an drinkable, a nice light body that picks up depth as it warms. Very nice finish, clipped and clean.

Apr 15, 2009 Batch 041 Bottle pours out a cloudy gold topped with a cream head. Aroma of lots of yeast and a nice malt. A little sweetness and some spice. The tast was about the same plenty of the belg yeast and a nice spice.
