Pretty sweet (too sweet? - if so, just barely), nice hoppiness, tastes like peaches and raisins, some sourness, really good

Dec 9, 2009 750ml bottle batch #7 (cellared 7yrs). Poured a cloudy amber brown color with a big head of beige foam that leaves lots of lace. The smell is full of spices and orangey citrus with some grassiness in the background. Great flavor with a good amount of malt sweetness, spicy cloves and some orange fruitiness with a little yeast. A slight alcohol taste shows as the beer warms. A crisp medium body with nice carbonation. This is a very solid Belgian ale.

Nov 25, 2009 Appearance: Pours a light aubrun with a lasting fluffy tan head.
Aroma: Fruity spicy yeast, candi sugar, brown sugar and cloves.
Taste: Candi sugar, clove, spicy hop, spicy malt. Came off a bit boozy as well.
Mouthfeel: Fizzy and thick.
Overall: Reminded me of many Unibroue beers. There are many other Allagash beers I enjoy more, and don’t mind paying $5.00 more for their fancier stuff

Nov 15, 2009 29th June 2008. Brewed with honey and spcies. Batch #16. A frothy light crisp beer. Gentle fruit and mild spice dominate a very mild malt base. Very drinkable.

Nov 8, 2009 Beautiful beige head, lovely lace that lasts & lasts, gorgeous dark gold color. In a tulip glass, the peaches aroma is promisng. But the rest of the beer doesn’t live up to its nice start. Too much carbonation for its supposed style, rough alcohol that overwhelms any flavors. It’s just not complex - all alcohol and malt. It looks plausibly Belgian, but lacks all the real Belgian characteristics. The best you can say is that lace is very nice. I won’t repurchase - it’s only $2 less than a really beautiful real Belgian ale anyway.
