Feb 9, 2006 Hazy, straw yellow color with a medium soapy white head. Light banana, lemon, yeasty aroma with a bit of a tartness as well. Very banana-bready flavors with a touch of freshly ground nutmeg. Sugary yeasty sweetness coats the tongue in a gently lingering finish. Pleasing overall, but the level of complexitiy leaves a bit to be desired.

Mar 28, 2002 Rich and sweet with loads of flavors in here as well. Dark with pleasant malty sweetness, showing some candi sugar, not cloying in the least. A supremely tasty beer.

Oct 11, 2006 750ml - thanks Irishboy - Aroma is yeasty bubblegum and banana. Some earthy hop funkiness as well. Pours transparent gold with cascading bubbles and a huge head, great sticky lacing. Flavor matches aroma with a bit more grassy hoppiness. Palate is creamy, clean, and dry. I was initially not too impressed, but as I kept drinking it, the complexity and depth began to show changing my aroma and flavor scores. A nice brew.

Dec 22, 2004 Thx MWSF! This is a well made Belgium Ale, not exceptional but well worth having. Classic in appearance, golden in color, moderately hazy with moderate white head. Aroma is very yeast and sweet (as some have noted like golden delicous apples and maybe some banannas). Flavor is pretty tart up front and sweeten as it crosses the palate.

Mar 17, 2009 Really put off by a very sloppy pour at Philadelphia beer week. My glass had so much clumpy dead yeast floating in the bottom of the glass that it looked like curdled cream, or worse, like the brewer had been sick into my bottle. Altered my perceptions, no doubt. Seemed like a dry slightly hoppy Belgian strong. Would be willing to try it again, from a different bottle.
