| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 30, 2007 Updated: May 29, 200833cL bottle. Aroma of sour fruit, yeast, spice (coriander?). Hazy, light gold amber color. The head went like it never was. Starts with caramel malt. Medium body, virtually no carbonation. Warming alcohol. Slightly sour stone fruits, perhaps with a little citrus. The hop doesn’t seem to come through. There’s enough sugar to offset the sour. It’s really refreshing. Wonder of wonders it finishes rather dry. A little astringent in a woody way. I’d say it’s complex. Rerate on 05/29/2008 at Poechenellkelder. Much the same rating. This is a spicey ale to die for.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 29, 2007 [Sampled at DØE-festival, Valby, 2007 with svoger.] A true dolle-brew with the easy recognizing dolle-yeast. Clear orange look with heavy amounts of bubbles. Seems to be sticky at the tongue, which later also was the fact. Aroma of fruit, yeast, alcohol and with a nice head. Flavor is similar, wellbalanced beer, alcoholic, but not as expected as it is 10 %. Good to food also Miguel (1181), Saint-Ours, Quebec, Canada

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 3, 2007 12oz bottle. Pours clear golden with a huge white head. Great aroma of candy, wheat, raisins, fruit, white chocolate, sweet and appetizing. Taste is not quite as good as the smell. Has the familiar Belgian strong taste that I get from some other golden Belgians like Piraat. Tastes kind of meaty, tart, metallic, and bitter. A little bit of alcohol. Pretty good.
