Dec 7, 2008 Tasted on tap at the Pizza Port Strong Ale Festival 12/5/2008. This Belgian Strong Ale pours a medium orange gold color from the tap. Medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is fruity and sweet, with a touch of tartness and funk. A medium to full bodied BSA. The malts are fruity and funky, and somewhat tart. The hops are floral. Nice carbonation. Nice beer. The funk and tartness sort of hide behind the fruit sweetness. Smooth taste. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.
