Draft at the brewpub. I’ve had this before, but it was a long time ago. Hazy blond pour. Aroma and flavor were sweet sugary pale malt. Not a lot different than the redemption. Seriously, I think they had about 7 different blond-type beers on that day.

Oct 5, 2008 On tap @ Toronado. Pours a cloudy golden color with almost no head. Yeasty, bready aroma, pizza dough and candi sugar. Thin body, spicy, sweet breads. I’m a dubbel guy, this just isn’t my style.

V - clear pale orange/yellow
A - belgian ale spices
T - typical belgian ales. I think best summarized as 3 parts Delirium Tremens, 1 part water
P - well balanced.

Sep 30, 2008 From a growler filled about 30 minutes ago. The chalkboard claimed only 7% ABV, also. Slightly hazy yellow golden with a one finger creamy white head, pretty good retention. Belgian yeast is dominant with banana and peach notes up front. Candi sugar and a hint of lemon are in the background with some herbal hops. Flavor has a little bit stronger banana and lemon notes (though the banana is stronger). The hops dry out the light to moderate sweetness down to the semi dry finish. Bitterness peaks around a 2/10. Light to moderate carbonation with a medium body--very smooth (as the commercial description says). A very good Belgian!
