Feb 16, 2004 Medium amber color. Medium white foamy head. Aroma is orange, malty and sweet. A medium bodied Belgian Ale. Malts are fruity, slightly nutty and sweet. Touches of orange and clove. Slightly spicy. Light and refreshing. Lively carbonation. Nicely balanced. Very smooth taste. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

Aug 20, 2003 Updated: Oct 29, 2003Pours clear dark amber with small off-white head. Good lacing though. Slightly sweet spicy hop aroma with a hint of dark fruits there. Lovely smooth medium mouthfeel. Initial sweet malt taste with a mild bitter middle and dry bitter finish. Aftertaste is bitter yet sweet, almost slightly tangy, with a hint of spice too. Quite tasty. Not as complex as other belgians but very quaffable! Rerate: More plum and rasins in aroma this time. Palate wasnt as full this time either. Finish quite thin. Lost a point on palate, gained one on aroma.

Oct 15, 2004 Bottle via JoeM, thanks: Reddish amber hue with nice frothy off-white head and very good lace. The aroma has notes of candi sugar, ripened apples and pears, orange zest, aromatic and grassy hops, light caramel, and zest yeast esters. The taste starts with a bittersweet note, some malt and a acidic fruit content. Zesty and bitter finish with a dose of pepper. The feel is lively but a bit thin. Refreshing for a Belgian Ale, a session style brew. A like this more than average ratebeerian I guess.

May 23, 2005 Pours a one-fingered white head that fades quickly leaving some lace. Clear amber color. Nose is sour plums. Light carbonation and light-medium bodied. Starts with a good mix of malt and hops, finish has some sour undertones. Not as harsh as American pales. $1.45 for a 330ml bottle from Colonial Spirits, Acton, Ma.
