Thin white head. Hazy amber pour. Clear alcohol taste but still another very good Smisje beer

Orange colour, off-white lasting head. Some small floats. Aroma of malts, fruity hops, pronounced pumpkin and pumpkin sweetness, caramel and light yeast spiciness. Flavour is rather sweet, good malt backbone, golden raisins, yeast. Quite full body. Alcohol showing through (nice alcohol warmth) and finish rather sweet with a hint of pumpkin.
(From 33cL bottle)
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
33 cL bottle poured into a Westmalle glass. Vibrant cloudy orange with a nice head that fades quickly. Smells acidic, citrusy and spiced, its decent. Definately spiced, has toffee, caramel and bit of bitterness and a touch of sour. Sweet and hides the alcohol reasonably well. Smisje beers are always a bit different and so is this. Warming on the palate and stimulates the taste buds.
