Bottle from The Beer Store. I am surprised that I haven’t had this earlier since I’ve always had access to it nearby. Poured wooden-brown into a trappist glass. This beer is all about spice. Has the signature Unibroue smell and flavour. Medium-bodied, with strong amounts of cumin, coriander, loads of malt & yeast. Oddly enough, one of my non-beer appreciating friends said it was the worst she had tasted, and another who favours Steam Whistle said it tasted like hot dogs...
Craziness aside, this is a wonderful beer, and has become my third-favourite Unibroue beer.

Aug 17, 2008 Looks great in the glass - light hazel with mild carbonation, a white head the goes away quickly. Aroma is mild but dominated by coriander, clove and citrus (the 3 Cs you shouldn’t have in a beer). Tastes malty, creamy and thick at first but finishes dry, sticky and slightly bitter. Good, but not my first recommendation.

Aug 11, 2008 Pours an amber-brown with noticeable sediment and a bubbly off-white head that persists and leaves thin lacing. A sour-fruit aroma with some spicy notes. Crisp, bright, very carbonated with a light mouthfeel. Spicy start with some sweet, fruity flavors, something like apricot, amd a slightly sour finish with a lingering aftertaste.
