papajohn (1054), San Diego (Mira Mesa), California, USA Aug 28, 2003 Had this at the brewery about a year and a half ago when Skip accidently filled my jug with it (I asked for AleSmith X). It's a clear yellow fizzy beer with a white head. It taste like a pale ale/koelsch with a lemon like tartness. Interesting, but not my favorite AleSmith brew. JohnC (2230), Mission Viejo, California, USA Apr 19, 2003 Clear yellow, a slight lemony flavor. It certainly doesn't taste like the belgian it claims to be. More like a Koelsch.
CE619 (81), san diego, California, USA Aug 9, 2002 very good belgian quencher/session beer. spicy, tangy beer, with hints of lemon and a bit of alcohol BeerLimey (1873), California, USA Sep 7, 2001 Updated: May 29, 2003a pretty light and extremely quaffable ale, a little hoppy again while adding an interesting coriander flavor as well as notes of orange peel. Skip described this as a cross between a hoppy west-coast style ale and a blonde Belgian ale. Interestingly this ale, as well as other AleSmith Belgian ales, is fermented with a yeast from a Trappist monastery.
