Bottle:   Golden amber, large frothy white head, dies quickly leaving spotty lacing.   Fruity and floral nose.
  Sweet, a little heat is exhibited.   Strong grassy maltiness up front, floral, some pale fruit, but also some
alcohol.   Tastes like a heavier Tripel.   Moderate to full body and mouthfeel.   Bready finish, dull floralness,
warming, not as fruity as the nose and start.   Decent, fairly average as Belgians go but still enjoyable.
