Immediate spices on the nose with yeasy esters overflowing. Taste is smooooooooth, but you can taste a little hotness in the finish. Soft spice again, but flowery notes overdubbing this brew. drowland (1405), Tallahassee, Florida, USA

Dark amber with a long lasting creamy tan head that leaves some patches of lacing. Aroma of dark fruit, spicy Belgian yeast, sugar and mild banana.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 21, 2009 On tap at the Asylum. Pours a hazy golden color with a small soapy head. Aroma is grainy, slight citrus, orange zest, banana, and spices. Taste is much the same. Very easy drinking but nothing special, as are most Belgians these days. bu11zeye (5442), Frisco, Texas, USA

Aroma of fresh, lightly biscuity Belgian malt with a touch of yeast and light citrus. Body starts fairly full with some nice lightly sweet caramel malt and an orange citrus balance toward a bready, semi-dry finish. A nice Belgian ale. kp (8399), Woodstock, Georgia, USA
