Flavour is mild citric with a distinct coriander spiced accent. Mix between spiced dry and mild caramelish sweet into a lasting spiced accent on the back of the nose.

Sweet yeasty flavour with ripe fruits, caramel and alcohol notes. Ends sweet with warming alcohol. Well balanced. BelgianBeerGal (904), Sabbatical in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Sep 6, 2008 Poured from 75cl bottle at Alesmith dinner. Pours a cloudy gold colour with a big white head and sticky lacing. Huge aroma of spice, yeast and tree fruits. Mouthfeel was very smooth and silky. Flavour was rather sweet, but not enough to overpower the spice. I really enjoyed this Belgian style. BlackForestCO (522), Fort Collins and Black Forest, Colorado, USA Aug 31, 2008 Bottle shared by a local. Poured a lightly hazy golden color with a moderate white head that left some thin lacing. Aroma of spicy, golden malt with a moderate yeastiness and some light fruit (orange, pear). Lightly sweet, spicy entry with some light honey and a moderate yeastiness with some light fruity flavors including soft apricot and orange rind offset and spicy crispness. Soft, light carbonation. Pretty nice. Praetorian (51), Los Angeles, California, USA Aug 26, 2008 Pours golden with an average sized off white head with good lacing. The aroma is of citrus, malts, and caramel: slightly like a heferwizen. The flavor is of citrus and spices with an orange peel finish. again, similar to a heferwizen. The texture is syrupy. It’s not a bad beer by any means, but nothing to write home about.
