Mar 27, 2009 12 oz bottle. Another trappist brew, second I’ve had by Westmalle. Pours a hazy orange/gold color with a finger high white head that disappates quickly. Smells of pear, some fresh hops, also possibly apples, and a light alcohol smell. Tastes of pear, apple, a bit of hops (though quite light), and a fairly strong alcohol bite. The alcohol makes the palate rating go down a bit, but it is still quite good, as the flavor is what does it.

Mar 22, 2009 11.2 oz bottle poured into a goblet. Hazy gold color with streaming columns of carbonation. Fluffy white head leaves quintessential Belgian lacing. Aromas of pears and apples with some coriander and a hint of alcohol. Flavor is lightly fruity with accents of pepper and coriander. Significant alcohol blends nicely behind the fruits and spices. Warming mouthfeel with delicate carbonation and medium body.

Mar 14, 2009 Sampled thanks to shawn at cool springs. Pours a near clear yellow with ample fluffy white head and small particulate. Sweet banana, yeast, light alcohol. Lots of alcohol on the flavor side, with a little bit of bitterness. Similar to some white wines i’ve had. Overated imo. Especially considering the price.

Mar 13, 2009 Bottle, pours cloudy copper. Banana, citrus, dough aroma. Nice taste, it has a sublte dough like banana citrus sweetness complimented by a well timed dryness. High carbonation. Subtle citus vinous type notes linger in the aftertaste. Alcohol not noticeable. Very complex and hard to describe. This is quality.
