Getting my notebook online. Bottle. Pours a rich gold, some decent bubbles. Lost of yeast and some sour citrus flavors. Not really my thing.

A nice, opaque golden beer, yeasty and very sweet. There’s an herbal taste I can’t quite place. It’s an attractive beer with a white head and a fair amount of carbonation. Very dry, with a lingering citrus taste. It’s difficult to detect its high alcohol content. Very drinkable.

Woo, this is a yeasty beasty. Pours a hazy deep gold with a long lasting white head. Some good lacing. Aroma is yeast and funk. Almost like a sour beer, but man, this is a yeast bomb. Flavor is more of the same. Hiding behind the yeast and malt is a bit of spice. Some clove maybe? This is a big big sweet beer. Good stuff.

Summary: Bring out the spice, and bring out the funk. Aroma: Powerful yeasty funk and coriander. Appearance: Hazy apricot-orange, no real head, just bubbles. Flavor: Sweet and yeasty from beginning to end, and delicious on that count. Heavily spiced: coriander, gumball, black pepper. Lightly fruity, some lemon zest at the front, some melon at the finish. Flavors linger forever. Palate: Lightly carbonated, warming. Dryness offsets the sweetness nicely.

This is easily my favorite of the Unibroue offerings. I could drink this all the time. Pours a dark gold in color, with a highly carbonated head forming on top. Smell is floral and fruity. Plenty of ripe fruit, mostly lighter fruits. Taste is delicious juicy fruits, some noticeable, typical unibroue yeast. Very bubbly mouthfeel and very easy drinking. Could drink a lot of this.

This was a GREAT beer. It was a little bit similar to Weyerbacher’s Merry Monks. I DEFINITELY couldn’t sense the high alcohol content in it at all. It was very easily drinkable.

(Bottle). Fruity aroma. Orange-amber with fizzy white head. Flavor is fruity, apples and oranges, and a little sweet. Spiciness in the finish. Not bad.

330 ml bottle. Golden body with a disappearing white head. Aroma is fruity, sweet, spicy and some alcohol. Flavor is sweet malt, fruity, spicy and alcohol. I find this balanced and very drinkable. For me this could easy go as a nice Belgium triple.
