750 mL bottle - pours amber with thick tan head; spicy aromas mixed with some caramel sweetness; lots of carbonation and bitter aftertaste

Bottle. Cloudy amber colour with a nice head. Aroma of wheat, spices, yeast and alcohol. also flavour of wheat, spices and yeast and with a alcoholic finish.

Deep orange with an off white head. Aroma is yeast, spices, and orange peels. Flavor is yeasty with banana and some other sweet lighter fruits. Nice big malted yeasty body.

Sampled at the Odds and Ends Tasting II on 10/19/07: This beer is a luminescent reddish copper color with a thick and rocky off-white head that dissipates slowly. Bananas, yeast and spices in the nose. Medium-bodied with yeast, musty malt and spice flavors. Touches of moderately bitter hops as well. The finish is yeast and a hint of black licorice and leaves a spiced aftertaste. Enjoyable throughout.

Sampled at the Newtown Brewfest 07 with Stegosaurus. These guys stole the show bringing the biggest variey of beer and they were awesome guys. Cloudy amber pour with a mild spicy/grassy sweet aroma. Good bready/alcohol taste blended very well and extremely enjoyable.

This orange ale poured with a decent beige head and a sweet malty aroma. The flavor is candy sweet with a carbonated mouthfeel and a strong alcohol presence at the finish. It has a balance of sweet and harsh that is typical of Belgian strong ales.

Orange-red with a thich creamy head. Sweet smell with some yeast smell. Taste is sweet and stong in alcohol. High carbonation with that causes a thich head.

It’s only because some of Unibroue’s prior anniversary beers are insanely good that I was disappointed with this one. Found it unbalanced and the alcohol is noticeable but I have a few bottles in the cellar and will re-rate.
