Headbanger (2072) - Aurora, Illinois, USA - APR 11, 2008
750ml bottle-A cloudy dark orange body with a nice two finger white head and active carbonation. Aroma of belgian yeast, sweetness, fruity, coriander, and some banana. Taste begins with the yeast and sweetness and it lasts throughout the mouthful. Dry on the back end with slight alcohol but otherwise hidden very well. Another great Belgian brew from Unibroue.

jrehmert (7) - Ellicott City, Maryland, USA - APR 11, 2008 does not count
Cloudy dark orange pour... Thin off-white head with little lacing... Aroma is dark fruity and slightly spicy with a rather strong burnt orange note coming through (probably just me though) which is very unique and quite pleasing... Medium malt mouthfeel, offset by significant carbonation and clove, spice, fruit, and banana flavors - expected for a belgian. Nice and dry toward the end... Very nice beer and would be gain a much higher overall if the head retention and/or clarity were a litte better.

kassner (1002) - Wexford, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 9, 2008
Had this beer with friends in Glyndon MD from the bottle. A really nice Belgian style, n oticble in some subtle taste, but while big, not exceptionally bigger than most triples.

durhambeer (2028) - Durham, North Carolina, USA - APR 6, 2008
Nice bright orange hazy pour with a generous white head. Citrus, yeast, banana, sweet summer fruits, and spice on the nose. Not overly sweet on the palate, which I very much appreciated. A little cinnamon added to the cloves and fruits on the palate. Pleasantly yeasty and alcohol was very pleasant but not burning. Quite a lovely beer, and a great value.

Snojerk321 (2954) - San Diego, California, USA - MAR 29, 2008
750ml bottle from BevMo. Pours a hazy reddish brown with an off-white head. The nose is full of spice, sugar, cloves, and alcohol. Bubbly in the mouth and warming down the throat, the taste is a blend of banana, spices, alcohol, and cinnamon. Pretty nice to relax once or twice with a bottle in a lifetime, but that is probably about it.
