Nov 11, 2009 Smells spicy and fruity, bananas. Appearance, big strong head, murky golden peach colour. Beautiful palate, is smooth but not extremely interesting for a beer of this character. Very complex fruity flavours with lots of spice. Reminds me of a super strong and flavourful Leffe Blonde. Good brew.

Nov 9, 2009 31/10 0.75 l bottle courtesy of ogivlado, huge thanks for sharing! It poured hazy golden body with bigger head. Nice belgian yeast aroma, strong and cloying, consisting mostly of banana and orange, but some other fruits and spices as well. Flavor was even better, yeasty and spicy with finest honey and vanilla malts. Fruity in the orange, other citrus and apricot way. Full in body with tasty long, slightly sweetish finish. Very well made, typical belgian style blond ale which I enjoyed a lot!

Nov 8, 2009 Bottled 750ml. -Cloudy orange/yellow coloured, medium to big white head, spicy fruity nose. Lively carbonation. Very fruity (orange and apricot), yeasty and spicy (mainly coriander) with notes of vanilla. Alcohol is discreet, just mild touch in the finish. Typical, decent and enjoyable BSA.

Nov 2, 2009 0.75l - Looked the part, gold color shown brightly, nice head. Smelled the part, yeast, hops and malt. Palate was missing something, that sour, berry fruit hit Belgian signature.

Nov 1, 2009 0.75l bottle that ogivlado shared with me and heavy (thanks!)
Poured a hazy golden body with a thick huge, very thick white head that went away quite slowly. Fine, typically Belgian nose, bubblegu, agrumes, dust... quite nice, and the same goes for the taste. It’s a nice fruity Belgian ale with the typical spicy lightly agrumey notes on a fine sweet chewy maltiness. Very light hoppy bitterness. Some carroty notes near the end detract a little. No real alcohol in my opinion. A good Belgian strong.
