Poured a hazy amber color with an off-white head. The aroma was yeasty, dusty, spicy, and fruity. the flavor was malty and hoppy with phenolic spiciness, yeasty. medium bodied with a dry and warming finish.

Bottle. A amber beer with a huge white head. The aroma is of yeast, caramel malt, fruits and alcohol, so is the taste. Medium to full body with a sweet alcoholic finish.

Bottle. Consumed at Rayboy01’s Cajun Fais Do Do. Sweet, non-descript aroma. Some Belgian characteristics. Dark, cloudy amber body. Sweet, carbonated, strong. Nice brew although nothing extraordinarily unique.

Bottle shared with Egon and Rickgordon. Cloudy dark amber with medium creamy off-white head. Fruity (oranges), candyish, and perfumy aroma with earthy, dusty, and yeasty notes, along with some alcohol. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Decent balance, quite sweet to begin with, but with some dryness n the finish.

Bottled. Cloudy orange/brown head. Fruity fresh, spritzy aroma with spicy yeast. Flavour is pale malty, bit citric, with spicy yeast. Full-bodied with alcohol shining through and pale malty sweetness and alcohol evident. Good house yeast as always with Unibroue.

Bottle, 75cl. Hazy orange colour with a large off-white creamy head. Fruity aroma with notes of peach & apricot. There is also a slightly burnt scent. Bitter fruity flavour, a bit yeasty. Full-bodied, present notes of alcohol.

December, 2009--I think it’s safe to assume this is the best by date, 750mL. Effervescent orange copper with a three finger light beige head. Yeasty aroma with plenty of fruity apricot, a little lemon, sweet caramel, and some white pepper and spicy alcohol. Flavor had the addition of some dust, stronger caramel and alcohol flavors, Semidry finish.Highly carbonated like all of Unibroue’s beers and a full body that doesn’t seem as full while the carbonation is so high. Good beer overall, but there are plenty of year round beers from Unibroue I’d rather have.
