Smells like a Belgian Ale. Aroma of dried fruits. Tastes is very light and easy to drink. Flavors of crisp fresh tree fruits like apples or pears. Very odd due to the color.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 8, 2006 Pours dark brown, translucent, with a large pillowy head, whick recedes fairly fast to a thin covering which lasts for the rest of the beer. Very high carbonation level. Fairly subdued fruitiness, which made it seem almost lagerish, it’s so smooth. Fruitiness becomes much more evident as the beer warmed toward the end. Dont drink too cold! Sweet aftertaste, mild bitterness. Petrucci914 (603), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA
