 raymow (738), Bensalem, Pennsylvania, USA
Oct 12, 2004 Nice reddish-orange color with a decent Belgian flavor. Has a bit of a harsh, slightly metallic aftertaste. Not bad, but not one of the better Belgian beers that I’ve had.
TBone (6675), Pori, Finland
Oct 7, 2004 Bottled (BB 03/2005)
reddish brown, good medium steady head, lace. Citric and floral aroma, like dish washing cleanser. Thin mouthfeel, malty, some lemon and hops. Watery.
Cornfield (4892), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA
Sep 27, 2004 Frothy head over a deep amber body, this baby carries a doughy aroma with a quickly fading hint of spiciness. A bit of a caramel flavoring, smooth on the malt. Disinteresting mouthfeel with a mildly hopped finish. I’ll accept a freebee on my next one of these.

Sep 10, 2004 330ml bottle, Safeway, room temp. Frothy, off-white diminishing head, fair lacing. Clear red/amber body, filtered, lightly carbonated. Nutty toffee aroma. Medium mouthfeel, nutty malt taste with nice dryish hop finish.
wilkie (1189), Raleigh, North Carolina, USA
Sep 8, 2004 Bolleke Draught. Brown color with a small white head. Slight malt in aroma, not much else. Flavor is yeasty and has spice. There is an ending with sweet malt and slight bitterness.
igel (196), New Mexico, USA
Sep 2, 2004 Pours a hazy golden brown, with a weak head (and poor retention at that); yet it is lively and effervescent. The smell is of bread, fruit, and a grassy background. The flavor has a crisp start, sweet middle and a dry, spicy finish. The feel is smooth and slippery with a balanced effervescence and a lingering dryness.
JonMoore (1561), Loughborough, Leicestershire, England
Aug 30, 2004 Bottle Safeway. Amber coloured with a short-lived tan head. Aroma is hops, malts and some fruit. Hoppy and fruity flavour with some background malt. Very mild, bordering on bland. Slightly carbonated, mdium bodied, medium to thin mouthfeel. OK but I was expecting better.
Cobra (1060), In a van, down by the river, Maryland, USA
Aug 30, 2004 11.2 oz. brown, longneck bottle. Freshness date is of 05/12/05.
Poured out a deep copper color, with a minimal head. The head was tan in color, and it faded quicker than it started. It left a smattering of foamy bubbles around the rim of the glass. Aromas are very weak, it’s really hard to pick out anything above the background. Slight stale malt aromas. No hops aromas or flavors either. Mouthfeel is thin, flavors are weak. Tastes like a stale Budweiser. Not much worth trying again. I know I won’t be buying it again.
