Pour is an orange with a average white head. Aroma is of doughy sweet malts with some fruity esters. Flavor is again sweet malts with some yeast. I can’t give this a better score as the sweetness kind of gets more cloying the more you drink it. Still it has some qualities just not something i would probably get again.

Pours gold into a stem glass. Bright white head recedes to coat surface. Sweet cookie and malt aromas. Thin with caramel upfront and a lasting alcohol burn.

Light amber body with an initally, medium sized, off-white head. The aroma is bread, caramel and some fruit. The flavor is light caramel, bisuit, banana, pear and brown sugar. Medium body with moderate carbonation and a touch of bitterness in the finish.

Bottle from Styles. Pours a deep copper-orangish color with a good sized white head. The head fades out to just layer the surface and leaves good lacing. Aroma is nicely hopped with spicey earthy hop notes. Flavor is very clean with subtle caramel sweetness and a generous dosing of hop bitterness which tends to be peppery. Quite nice.

Clear amber body with a thin bubbly white head. The aroma has light apricot and grape along with biscuity sweetness. The flavor is quite strong. Starts with loads of caramel, brown sugar, the aformentioned Belgian yeast, and nutmeg spice. Alcohol (and not much else) is evident in the finish. Meh.

Bottle from Ryan. Pours out a yellowish - orange color with a nice white head on it. Smell is malty, fruity, has some alcohol in it. Smells alot like their other doppelbock, just not dark colored. Taste is smooth and rich, with no alcohol detected. Easy drinking and sweet. Paired pretty good with steak. I would drink it again, it seemingly disappeared...

Small white head that,s short lived. Clear copper colored brew. Light malty nose, light graininess. Body is medium with a light carbonation. Medium sweet malt flavors, lightly bready, Faint notes of honey and a touch of caramel. Mildly sweet finish. Alcohol is well hidden.
