pours a cloudy dark yellow with a huge three finger fluffy off white head. aroma is Belgian yeast and some hops with lemon and melon. has a medium body with descent lacing and good carbonation. flavor is the same as aroma but stronger. the 9% abv is well hidden and not bad of a beer. a more fruity duvel.

This beer had been languishing in my fridge for a bit, and i regret that I’d overlooked it. It is spicey, full-bodied, tripel-like, and pretty good, despite the unknown age of this particular example. Appearance wasn’t great. There was a lot of Sprite/7-Up looking head initially, which quickly faded to a scummy coating. Aroma is quite spicey, like clove and coriander. Flavor is a bit over-sweet, but offers nice spiciness and some zesty citrusness. Mouthfeel is a bit sticky. Pretty good. I would recommend this beer. I believe I bought this bottle on New Year’s Day at Koppa’s Food on Farwell Ave in Milwaukee (across from Comet Cafe).

crystal clear golden with a great fluffy white head too bad it disappears. good lacing. bread coriander and cinnamon dominate the aroma with interesting underlying notes of apple and vanilla. very interesting aroma. great balanced sweet tart spicy flavor. apples coriander cinnamon. reminds me of a bowl of granola with some apples in the morning. finish at first dominated by sweet tart dry apple with light spices leading into a great harmonious bread apple spice finish. full body lively carbonation. great beer. apple cinnamon bread pudding in a bottle?

Hazy orange with a good head. Sweet and spicy aroma with strong notes of yeast. Fruity flavours of citrus, straw, vanilla and apples. Quite nice.

(Dégusté avec french tickler) Couleur Or brumeux avec un mince collet moyennement collant. Odeur de banane, fruits des champs, senteur un peu sure. Saveur sucré, un peu poivré et alcoholisé. Édition 2004 : La couleur reste semblable, coté odeur le fruité ressort beaucoup et la senteur surette qui est partie. Niveau gout l;e sucre reste et l’alcohol c’est volatilisé.

Oh, act all surprised, a bottle full of belgian foam. Are ya’ll as tired of this as I am? Smells good, like breakfast, slightly wild yeasty malt, and eggs with salt. Pale yellow pour, lots of bubble in the beer. huge pure white medium tight nit foam head. Flavor is quite good actually. It’s mild and of pure malts, slight hops, citrus, fruit, and well balanced between all of these. I might actually enjoy another beligium besides Chimay white. This unibrouoe is not bad.

Pors golden yellow with white head and yaest floaters. Aroma of bread, citrus and sweetness. Flavor is citrusy and sweet. Well done. Palate is creamy with prickly carbonation. Another good brew from Unibroue.
