Wow! This one I really like. Lots of bread in the aroma. Lots of flavor too. Fair price.
4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
(Bottled) Hazy darkish amber color with big yeast clumps and a very small head, plus some lace. Very pleasant and quite complex, sweetish-malty, raisiny aroma with rye pudding hints and strong, hoppy and vineous berriness. The flavor is much like Westmalle’s (sweeter, though), with plenty of hops, malt, yeast, orange-peel, and raisiny-rye-pudding. Medium-bodied, soft palate with very balanced carbonation. Slightly sugary-slicky and bitter. An extremely pleasant, easily drinkable and wonderfully balanced brew, that I could drink all night long (it even has a low ABV)! Forget all the watery British ales - here’s the (almost) perfect session brew!!!

The beer extracts from the 330ml dark green bottle luminous deep amber or copper color with a husky head that is semi-creamy in texture the color a nice light tan and as it slowly depreciates the leftover lace forms a velum like curtain to drape the glass. Nose is fruity, fresh and clean, hints of bubble gum, the start is sweet with a personable malt presence, the top light to moderate in feel. Finish is delightfully acidic, the hops delectable in their spiciness, very dry and long lasting aftertaste, nice and pleasant to drink.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
Hazy golden - light amber color; generous head, beautiful lace. Very nice hop aroma, herbal, deep. Good hop character, not enough body to support it.
A kind of IPA, with dryer body; actually the most interesting of the St.Paul’s, but all of them miss some stronger body.
