A truly fine example of a strong Belgian ale.

Draught at Kamikaze. Bright, glowing gold-orange with lace. Big grassy hops in the nose, citrus, light bread, sweet orange. Tasty. Lightly sweet at first but a dry finish, grassy, citrus zest, some pineapple, peaches; nice balance. Light but persistent Belgian fizzyness. Great stuff.

Aroma is tropical fruity and malty sweet. You have to give it a good swirl though, as the carbonation is low. Taste is surprisingly smooth for the 10% abv, with a smooth bitterness throughout and notes of tropical hoppiness, caramel maltiness, warming alcohol and that characteristic barleywine like flavor from a huge OG. The finish is smooth and leaves you with a lingering bitterness.

750ml bottle from letspour. Yellow pour with thin white head that leaves a ring. Aroma is grain and sugar citrus. Tastes are bubblegum, peach and tropical fruits, cloves, belgian yeast and wet grass. Strong bitter follow-through. Little sweet for my tastes, but well constructed brew.
