Purple-Disease (3), Montreal, Quebec, Canada does not count Dec 11, 2007 Ale de type triple/ 9% d’alcool/ Blanche aux reflets dorés/ saveurs de fruits et de houblon à peine perceptibles/ Arôme dégageant un soupçon d’épices tgncc (796), Bellmore, New York, USA Dec 9, 2007 Like many Belgian ales, it has a sweet, malty aroma. The color is pale golden witha tinge of red, and it has a decent amount of carbonation. Sweet, malty taste, maybe a little like corn, with some spiciness. Thin/medium mouthfeel. Nice burn on the palate afterwards, probably a combination of the spices and some hops. Decent, but not my favorite Unibroue. robforbes (1083), Bremerton, Washington, USA Dec 6, 2007 Updated: Jun 26, 2009old rating:

pour is cloudy, golden (looks like a wheat beer), fizzy, large bubbly white head that dissipates quickly.
smell is yeast, ripe banana, wheat, sweet fruit, citrus, and some spice.
taste is tangy on the tongue, yeast, some wheat, very carbonated, lemon, pineapple, apple, no alcohol taste, and some spice, leaves the mouth a little dry and a touch on the bitter side. SHIG (2012), Aviano, Italy Dec 6, 2007 Bottle: Poured a rusty copper amber with a white froathy head. Aroma is sweet fruit and malt. Taste is sweet fruit with a nice tingle. RSRIZZO (1345), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Dec 1, 2007 Had this beer on 7/22/2007. Aroma is a light sweet malt scent. Color is a pale gold with a slight haze. Carbonation is good with a loose white head. Taste is light and sweet. Stating with a light/medium body it goes down easy with a clean feel. Finish comes in with a mellow sweetness that has mild fruit tones then just a touch of bitterness on the end. Overall its a great beer but doesn’t have that Belgian taste that there others have. Beerman6686 (1266), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 29, 2007 hazy yellow appearance, flavors of cloves, banana, and alcohol, aroma of banana. This almost reminded me of a supped up wit gabbama (115), Ft. Walton Beach, Florida, USA Nov 27, 2007 Light fruity aroma. Amazing flavor with banana, citrus, cloves, honey and so much more. Alcohol comes out on the finish, but not too much. Nice full body. I will definately drink this one again. grimreeser (795), Minnesota, USA Nov 25, 2007 Pours a hazy slightly dark golden with a good sized head. Aroma of citrus, some banana, and yeast. Nice sweetness, lively on the tounge. Good stuff.
