Aug 7, 2004 very deep golden color, thick and creamy white head....lasting, no lacing though. aroma is very vinous, lots of buttery chardonnay notes, oak barrel notes, and an earthy grapey quality, flavor is not all that vinous, somewhat earthy, a little spicy in the finish, flavor is not all that much like the aroma...night and day. there are mild fruity and caramel in the flavor as well....interesting enough.

Sep 9, 2005 Amber clearly color, hazy orange; much elegant and bubbly one. Compact and adherent foam, good duration and shape. Fresh and prickly scent; banana, vanilla and red currant notes. Softly sourish end. Rich and agreeable taste, light spiced and bitter deprive. Much drinkable although 8%.

Jul 11, 2005 Poured mid brown with a tight off white head. Nose sour.. citrus and wood and earth. Tasted rubbery and had a bit of lawn mixed with malts. A bit watered down tasting and not all that great to drink.

Oct 7, 2009 This poured a really light amber color with a white head. Aroma was funk, sour notes, spices and alcohol. Flavor was like a weak saison with a little sourness, seemed like a few different style attempts that just didnt go toegether very well. Decent but not great by any means.

Jul 3, 2004 Luminous golden amber. Spicy aroma--hints of mulled cider, and more strong unidentifiable spiciness. SOme bananas in the flavor as well as more spice and rather fruity. Yeast profile is not overly estery, though. Spiciness grows a bit tiresome at the end.

Oct 30, 2004 Pours a hazy brown amber with a large yellow short lasting head. Well despite paying top $ for this this some 2 months ago and storing it in the fridge at all times I have to say I am very disappointed with this beer and I’m beginning to suspect the importer and/or bottle shop may not have treated it appropriately. I’m afraid I’m gonna have to try this in Europe next time I’m there. The brewery is not too far from my cousin’s place in Torino so there is every chance this will happen. Anyway I will rate it as I saw it and amend it next time I rate it. The aroma is a medium medicianal friars balsam? and bandaid with a touch of biscuity malt. Flavour wise it tastes like an old Chimay, stale watery yeasty caramel malty with the same medicinal touches as in the aroma. My colleage says he can get the apricot at the end but I’m nowhere on this. I don’t like rating off beers so I’m including this for compartive purposes only.
