Pour is a dull orange with a large foamy white head. Aroma is lots of sweet fruit with a nice funk to it. Flavor is lots of fresh citrus with some vanilla, caramel and again some funk. After the funk you get sme oily hops left on the tounge. This is a pretty tasty beer snd something to sip on for awhile. Now im going to have funk burps all night!

Yellow/Golden color, clear with a thin white head with low head retention and good lacing. Earthy yeast aroma and leather Brett. aroma with sweet malt aroma and low hop aroma. Sweet malt first and then the yeast and Brett. take over with a low hop flavor and bitterness that drys into the lingering finish. medium light body and smooth mouthfeel. Alcohol warming into the finish, Very complex!

Bottle at Dilly Deli. Poured hazy dark amber with an average frothy white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate complex hoppy citrus aroma. Medium to full body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Solid balanced bittersweet flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate duration. This is a smooth complex standout beer

Bottle: The aroma consists grapefruit, pineapple, floral/perfumey notes, and faint sour apple. It pours a transparent gold with a small white head. The flavor starts with pineapple and grapefruit combination that blends together very well along with some light yeastiness. There is some faint sour apple way in the background. The finish has moderate floral and grapefruit bitterness and spiciness. No sign of the 8.5% ABV in the flavor. Medium-bodied with lively, but soft carbonation.

750mL bottle poured into a tulip.
Pours a hazy amber that shines a very bright orange when held up to the light underneath a big fluffy white head that settles to a thin soapy ring. Lots of sediment in the bottom of the glass.
The aroma is light and fruity with apples being the first thing I notice with some spicy belgian yeast and a little sugar. There is a musty character to the aroma overall with the brett barely showing.
The taste is more of the same with the apples still dominating up front but the spicy yeast is much more prevalent than in the aroma. I do get some hops in the taste as well, mainly of a lemongrass character.
The mouthfeel is medium bodied with strong carbonation and dry and musty in the finish.
This is a subtle but complex Belgian pale with a good hop profile considering the age and very drinkable overall.

Sampled at Lost Abbey for RBSG 08. Pours a hazy, amber-gold with a white ring. Very lemony aroma, with malt and a hint of something herbal. Taste is sweet, of citrus, with sharper hops notes. Nice carbonation. Lingering sharpness. Very tasty and interesting.

Pours a murky orange color with a big rocky white head. Aroma was citrus, barnyard, yeast and a bit of malt. Flavor was very bready, citrusy, some nice Brett notes with a solid twang. Nice beer.

[Bottle] shared by JoeBrew and EddyB23. Thanks! Pours a cloudy gold with a medium white head of fine bubbles. Aroma is yeast, cloves, banana, popcorn, and a little bit vegetal. Flavor is a bit hoppy, extremely light in the mouth, tastes like there’s some wheat malt in there as well. Very nice earthy qualities all around.
