| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 8, 2009 Bottled. Very grainy, barley, wheat aroma, extremely dry. Flavor has a touch of sweetness up front but ends in a wet, soggy dryness that sucks up moisture from the tongue. A touch of hop or of citrus, maybe, but this is mostly like licking a rug. I had high expectations for this beer, I am disappointed. But maybe I just am horrifically sick of Brooklyn after drinking some 13 or 14 of theirs beers in the past week.

Nose-big sweet macroness, yeasty. Taste-high CO2, lotion, metal, banana, clove, big yeast, banana esters, light bitter, candy sugar, definitely a Belgian yeast strain. Reminiscent of Duvel. Perfume, clove, apple skin, raw sugar, unrefined, white grapes. Like an “Imperial Duvel”. mikkopen (270), Oulu, Finland
