4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20
From the cork and caged 750ml, bottle a hazy deep golden color, the head a monstrous pile upon the body, after its slow dissolution, the resultant lace a thick and clingy sheet. Nose is full of sweet malt, lemon lime crispness, bread dough, hop floral, with a smattering of fusel alcohol. Start has a definite malt sweetness, with the sweet and sour a perfect combination to please the palate, top light to medium in feel. Finish continues the spicy tartness, hops delectable, unrelenting acidity and the aftertaste dry as a bleached desert bone, tummy warmer that’s a given, Unibroue has been a long time favorite brewery, and as I absolutely love Belgian Strong’s, this series suites me just fine.

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.
