Mar 30, 2007 Pours a clear copper color with a medium white head. Aroma of honey and fruits. The flavor is boring, there’s a mix of fruits and sweetness but it feels bland. The body is light with a creamy texture and moderate carbonation. Boring and ordinary.

Mar 27, 2007 Draft at PP Belgian Beer Fest. Some sour fruitiness on the aromas, but it was mostly malty. Flavor was almost all malt and some alcohol. Very dubble like. Not bad.

Mar 18, 2007 Aroma is of malt, oranges, and some light floral scents. Deep golden brown with particles in suspension all over the place. Medium to light palate. Some light yeast and weak malts in the flavor with a hint of bitterness in the finish.

Mar 15, 2007 330ml bottle - pours a clear, medium amber shade with a small and quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is of sour apples and some spices. There’s something weird in the flavour also, like some kind of candy, that I can’t quite put my finger on. Flavour is...uh...not great. That same weird apple/candy thing is going on. Carbonation is tingly on the tongue, but without the velvety softness that is characteristic of many other Belgian ales. The finish is somewhat sour with an earthiness or something as well. I’m not crazy about this. BUT! I love the bottle cap - a graphic of a hand in the "STOP" position. Nice.

Mar 13, 2007 330 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. ABV is 5.0%. Brown colour, low head. Moderate but pleasant fruity aroma, hints of spices. The flavour is spicy with moderate malts, not very sweet, pleasant to drink. Relatively high carbonation in the glass. This is not an "extreme" Belgian ale in any way, and no "challenge" for the beer enthusiast, but probably an ale that most people will like.

Mar 8, 2007 I remember having this one at Hoopmans in Amsterdam, was nice! But by that time I had too many to even care. Wish I had more time there.

Mar 7, 2007 25cl off tap. Poured a clear, dark orange amber, with a lasting off white head. Malty, toffee aromas with hints of caramel and fruity spiciness. Quite sour in flavour, with hints of apple, malt, and toffee. Very tasty. A sour bitterness in the finish. Medium yet full, satisfying palate. A good tasty beer; complex yet refreshing.
