Lilith (242), Santiago, Chile Jan 2, 2007 Hazy yellow color, sparkling. Medium white head. Aroma is delicious with notes of honey, coriander, cinammon, clove and banana, very much like a trippel. Flavor is sweet, but not too much, peachy with some citrusy notes and a bitter end. Lively carbonated, with a chalky-sticky texture. mansquito (819), Boston/Philadelphia, USA Jan 1, 2007 Cloudy blonde color. Not as light as a witbier and it looks mostly like a belgian blonde. Head falls pretty fast. Spicy clovey taste. Fruity taste is definately there as well. The beer actually has almost no taste of alcohol in the mouth, but provides the stomach with a pleasent warming feeling that I found charming. Tingles on the tongue pretty hardcore. Really, really smooth for a Belgian strong ale. dmradus (225), State College, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 29, 2006 Updated: Jan 24, 2007Golden orange with an orange cap. Yeasty nose: more clove than banana but both present, some citrus. Taste is less sweet than expected a touch of honey spiked with spice - pepper and clove, some lemon. Slightly bitter finish but low hop presence overall. High carbonation. Above average Belgian strong but nothing to write home over. Saarlander (1577), Saarlouis, Germany Dec 29, 2006 Gold pour, nice head, dissappeared quickly though. Very fruity, light sourness, some earthiness. Very well hidden alcohol, good drinker. I enjoyed this one! DuffMan (2723), the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, Canada Dec 23, 2006 Hazy burnt gold, thin white head with little lace. Aromas of sugar pie and banana. Surprisingly malty for a Unibroue strong ale, very soft palate. Again caramelized sugar, some banana, and lightly yeasty. The alcohol is apparent but not harsh. Toward the end of the glass, this had no carbonation left at all. Enjoyable. roder60 (1019), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 22, 2006 Pours a hazy gold with slim amount of fizzy white head. Aroma is very much sweet banana and yeast. Flavor is dry slightly sour fruit taste. Overall, not bad but hoped for more. AR (417), Georgia, USA Dec 22, 2006 Somewhat hazy and bubbly when poured with a nice head. Smooth flavor with a heavy mouthfeel. jetzler (622), oklahoma city, Oklahoma, USA Dec 22, 2006 Light delicious, full bodied, great beer, ver light hazy color,, great dry taste, very nice. Really 9% doesn’t feel like it. Umm tasty beer every brew by these canucks is tasty.
