Nice golden/yellow colour with little head. Nice aroma. Somewhat fruity tastewith gentle spices and a little sweetness. Nice clean finish with little aftertaste. A strong ABV but this is well hidden. Not bad overall.

Good belgian ale, pours light golden. Fruity, lots of citrus and hop notes for a belgian. Pillow head but dies more quickly than alot of belgians. Had in bottle like 11.2 ounce in liqour store in illinois.

Bottle. 11.2 oz. Pours clear gold with a large, white frothy head. Aroma of wheat, hay, hops, and citrus. Medium body with a moderate, smooth finish. Average Belgian ale.

Pours a hazy golden orange with a large white head that sticks around. Aroma is mostly of pilsner malts, with just a touch of light fruit. Yes, this is very consistent with the dubbel and tripel in that it’s just a smaller version; light fruits and spice in flavor. Authentically Belgian with the yeast strain. Spritzy mouthfeel, medium density. I like it. Nothing new; pretty much in line with all the other smaller Belgians, and I’m perfectly okay with that. Overall, good to very good.

On tap at the Cheeky Monk in Denver. Clear golden color with a large, lasting, creamy white head and some lacing. Aroma is pale malt, banana, and yeast. Flavor is sweet pale malt, fruity esters - banana, apricot, and pear, spice, and Belgian yeast. Body and carbonation are medium.

Had on tap in a tulip glass. Solid white head on this one that lingers and laces a tiny. Mainly light fruity esters on the nose and a big sweet entry to boot. Goes down smooth, medium-high carbonation.
