mikeben (335), Naperville, Illinois, USA Apr 9, 2004 A beer this good deserves at least one score marking it near five. Color is really beautiful. Terrific rich golden ale. Very indiginous to Belgium. Wonderful notes of honey. Golden ales like this are underated but like Leffe and Prarie Path (which this beats on both accounts) I have always enjoyed the rich malty flavor of the style. groovinhigh (165), Acworth, Georgia, USA Sep 13, 2002 I’m a big fan of St. Sebastiaan!! The Golden is a smooth Belgian Ale that hides the high alc... Especially good for Belgian newbies. GreatLibations (1252), Sasquatcho, Arizona, USA Mar 7, 2007 Pours a hazed tawny yellow w/ a full, semi creamy froth that slowly reduces to a creamy clump. Aroma is tropical w/ milky citrus rind and granite. Medium nectar w/ ample residual effers brings out a cotton like texture. This golden ale is one of the more strongly flavored w/ tons of mouth watering citrus milk. Theres a briskness that really appeals to me. So strong yet beholds finesse. Flavors of citrus milk, vanilla, and only slight banana intertwined w/ a creamy tropical collage of nunces to include pineapple, kiwi, passion fruit, peach, pear, and apple. It reminds me of a protien fruit drink I used to get at the health food store (gentle strength in tempe). The finish is bittered w/ a defined peach pit component. Overall: This brew rocks. Perfect balance and very gratifying. Highly recommended. hotstuff (3038), Indiana, USA Apr 10, 2003 A very smooth Belgian Ale.No strong aftertaste was noticed with this brew.I definitely would drink this one again.Cool bottle. thehoff (518), Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA Sep 16, 2003 Very complex beer and on the more expensive side but well worth it. A beer that I could drink again and again.
