May 3, 2009 Wow, where to begin. First of all, big ups to Butters for providing this unique Belgian! Pour is a beautiful hazy gold with white head. Rich sweetness of honey and malts, slight alcohol. Similar taste with a nice spicyness to balance out the sweetness of this beer. Usually not a fan of sweet beer, but this really struck a chord with me!

Apr 25, 2009 Bottle from Swolf3, thanks Wolf. Gold pour with a nice white head. Light and fruity, a little dry as well, very nice aroma. A little spicy, more light fruitiness, and some alcohol warmth in the finish. Pretty good.

Apr 10, 2009 [2005 Bottle] from Ygtbsm94, thanks Brad! Pours a hazy gold with a large beige head. Aroma is sweet candi sugar, malt, and fruity yeasty notes. Flavor is definitely showing its age - really mellowed out sweetness, especially off the front end. Super smooth and rich, the alcohol is almost imperceptible. I can’t say that this has improved with age, but it definitely hasn’t declined either. Interesting brew.

Apr 5, 2009 Sampled at the Impromptu Butter’s 6th cellar clearance. Hazy golden orange with suspended particulate and small ring of white head. Nose of honey and just the slightest hint of alcohol. Massively sweet honey flavor is verging on mead. Great hidden abv has a nice warming effect but no burning. Sweet but not cloying. Very enjoyable candi sugar finish. Expensive, but worth the price for a dessert wine substitute.
