| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 11, 2007 Draught in an Urthel snifter at the Brick Store. Pours a hazy bright orange with a massive white head. Aroma is wild and yeasty with hints of pineapple, grass, cloves, nutmeg. Carbonation is medium. The description on the menu claims this a quad, though a unique one. That is definitely stretching the imagination, I like the broader "Belgian Strong Ale" classification this site has given it. This is nice bright ale with tons of pineapple, cloves, nutmeg, some banana, doughy notes, and honey. I found the flavor to be tamer and less sour than the aroma. This is a great drink. maxbeer (118), Italy
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 8, 2007 Mainly yeasty aroma, though not unpleasant. In the mouth again some yeast, a bit of (moderate) honey and chocolate, and above all a thick, smooth, creamy palate. Alcohol is well hidden. Full and enjoyable. sunevdj (1790), Copenhagen OE, Denmark

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Apr 27, 2007 Dry fruit taste like grapes. Clear orange/golden color. Small white head. Sweet and tangy start. Finishes with light carbonation. patrick767 (2066), fort wayne, Indiana, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 20, 2007 bottle - Pours hazy copper with a one finger head that leaves plenty of lacing. The enjoyable aroma is heavy on yeast and citrus fruit. A sweet, citrusy, lightly spiced flavor mostly covers the high abv. The finish is mildly bitter. It kind of reminded me of Piraat 10.5, perhaps because of the pronounced fruit notes, and that’s a good thing. Very good beer. faroeviking (6128), BjórtjóðveldiðBjórheimBjórsins, Faroe Islands
