Feb 14, 2009 Draught at the brewpub. Dark gold color with a fluffy white head. Sorry Greg, but the aroma WAS earthy; toasted malt and some fruity pear-like stuff in there as well. The flavor was relatively hoppy, in an earthy herbal way, supported by a toasty malt flavor. Finished with a lingering light bitterness. I can’t say if this is a great biere de garde, but it had a good mix of flavors and its balance was pretty spot on.

Feb 14, 2009 Hand pump at Max’s Belgian Fest. Pour was a cloudy brown color with no head. Fairly thick pour with a buttery and toffee flavor. Very easy going down. Bit of floral in the end of the drink.

Apr 12, 2008 Draft at Max’s 72 Hour Belgian Beer Fest. This was on cask, actually. Cloudy brown. Nose is fruity and sweet. Taste is VERY fruity with soft yeast, soft caramel, and light flowery hops. Slick feel to the body that typically comes with cask beers. Soft to no carbonation. Lighter feel overall. Lots more big fruit during the finish. More yeast notes and flowers too. Very tasty!

Mar 8, 2008 Cask at Max’s Belgian Fest 08, Pours an unfiltered amber color with a slight lacey head. Subtle sugary malt flavor. I really like this style and this is a good representation of it.

Oct 23, 2004 Dark amber coloured body with ruby tints and a thin off-white head. Aroma of hops, caramel, malt, caster sugar and cherries. Medium to Full-bodied; Spicey hoppiness with a strong malt backbone and some sugars. Aftertaste clean and pleasant throughout. Overall, a decent beer-nice from a local brewer, but not the best ever! I sampled this pint on draught at RFD in Washington, D.C. on 20-June-2004 with JonR888710 & Haddon90.
