Nov 15, 2009 Nice head of deep amber. Very deep malty aroma and taste: bready and toasty. Not as defined as others in the style that I’ve had. Still enjoyable.

Nov 26, 2006 I love ales, belgian, british, all of them. This one is no exception altho it’s quite a big name. It’s got character, yet it’s easy to drink. It’s nicely dry, but not too bitter.

Dec 22, 2006 Updated: Feb 12, 2007On draught. Rich copper colour in the glass. Small head for a draught Belgian beer, but good lacing. Sweet, some malt and hopes, but not enough to make it distinctive. Bit of a let down considering all the ’classic Belgian ale’ jive that goes with it, but its ok.
*I had a couple of bottles of this last night (29/12/06) and I prefered it to the draught - much more dry and with the hops more evident, but with out the large fluffy head.
I had a glass on draught at The Rake (02/02/07) and it was much better than the draught at the Bierodrome. Much dryer and complex - honey flavours, some spice and and well rounded finish. I guess these guys keep their beer better.
A Re-re-re rating. I had a half at The Dove on Broadway Market, Hackney and it was the best yet. Such an easy drinking beer, full of flavour. When its well kept, its a winner.

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.

Nice aroma with fipefruit, florals and citrus all there.Taste starts sweet and bready, followed by a little alcohol, finishing up hoppy and crisp. Well balanced. Mouthfeels is full and a little soapy. Would drink again.
