Not an overpowering sour. Tastes a little syrup. A little funky with some oranginess. Slacks (484), Bolton, Ontario, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 11, 2006 Updated: Dec 17, 2006750ml Bottle @ Decemberfest 2006; thanks to HogTownHarry: Remarkably similar in pour to the Saison Imperiale with a good hazy copper colour, but this one offering much improved head retention. Looked really nice in the glass as I drank. The aroma is coriander, cloves, citrus peel, plums, and alcohol. The flavour was quite sour and light in body, with discernible oranges, lemons, coriander, and cloves to taste. Not my every day beer, but good for a Flemish Sour Ale. jazz88 (2236), San Francisco, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 19, 2006 Bottle. A reddish amber color with a big foamy creamy tan head. A wood, cherry, and sour fruit aroma. Sour cherry and citrus flavors with a slick malty flavor and a hay barnyard finish. I always enjoy a good Flemish Sour Ale. nolankowal (850), Columbus, Ohio, USA

Aroma, some alcohol, a nice sweetness to it, with the sour coming through as well, some fruits. Flavor, fruity sweetness, a nice sourness, but it’s balanced quite nicely.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 8, 2006 750ml bottle. Fruity, spicy and markedly tart aroma, notes of cherry, red grape and tree bark to be found along with a certain musty yeast funk and some light phenols. Attractive deep red-orange color in the glass, taking on a rosy tint and featuring a large, foamy ivory head. Flavor profile is primarily composed of the sweetly malty and tart, fruity elements, playing these off one another and seeing an influx of citrus along with suggestions of cinnamon and wood here. Finish is moderately acidic and again features a juicy tartness. Smoothly creamy palate with a medium-full body. Has something to offer fans of the style. dwyerpg (2529), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 4.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 19/20 | Nov 6, 2006 To me, this may be the best Flemish sour I’ve had. Extremely smooth and easy to drink with a hint of the sour bite. Just an excellent beer for number 17 at the party. I was very impressed.
