Sep 18, 2006 I really enjoy this one for some reason. It kind of reminds me of Delirium Tremens, but a lot cleaner. Pours a hazy golden color with a huge rocky head. Nice and fruity. Fruits such as pineapple, tangerine pull through nicely. Very solid beer from Unibroue.

Sep 18, 2006 Big white head on a hazy gold body. Aroma is fruity, slightly peppery, with lots of Unibroue yeast (love it or hate it...) Flavor is sweeter than I expected, the high ABV helps to cut that somewhat. Might be helped by a little cellar time so everything mellows slightly.

Sep 16, 2006 Hazy gold, fluffy pilow white head. Nose is yeast, fruit (pineapple, orange, some sort of berry), clove, ginger, a hint of alcohol, slight astringency. Flavor is really fruity but I can’t place it. Not quite pineapple. Clove, ginger, alcohol, yeasty goodness w. some pepper. Alcohol is apparent in the finish but not overbearing.

Sep 11, 2006 This beer is a lightly hazed golden color with a thick and frothy white head with decent retention. Fair amount of lacing as well. The aroma is yeasty with some pepper and citrus. Medium-bodied with a spicy character of cloves and pepper. Some citrus, wheat and yeast flavors as well. The finish is spicy with a nice orange peel finish. Pretty good overall.

Sep 10, 2006 The hazy, pale pour out the 750 ml. bomber was topped with a three finger thick beige head. The aroma was quite similar to most other Belgian strong pale ales from Unibroue; i.e., mostly sweet, and floral, with a touch of sweet spice. The taste was strikingly sweet, had a sharp carbonation sting, and finished up with Granny Smith apple peel tartness. I felt the overall experience was a little more tedious than in needed to be. Had there been some more subtlety in the approach, I would have enjoyed the combination of flavors much better.

Sep 10, 2006 Started flowing from the moment I popped the cork. Nice aroma of navel orange and perfumed blossoms. Sweet, spicy, and yeasty flavor with nice carbonation to cleanse the sugary finish.
