Dec 4, 2005 Bottle, either at GBBF or St Albans Beer Festival, or both (my notes were out of chronological order and on a separate sheet of paper). Pretty much what Duff said. Murky blonde colour. Massive fluffy white head. Overconditioned. Fizzy on the tongue. Very yeasty. Some spicy notes. Some citrus. Light mouthfeel. Pleasant enough but rather forgettable.

Sep 13, 2005 Enticing and complex aroma conjures suggestions of grapefruit, marzipan, leafy tobacco, perfume, lavender soap and pastry dough. Hazy tan body with low, dense and lasting, off-white head. Strong citrus, banana, leafy character and peppery spiciness all vie for attention in the leadup to the moderately bitter finish. Cake-like yeastiness is pervasive. Sharp, pointy, initially aggressive carbonation detracts somewhat from overall enjoyment but subsides in time. Sampled at GBBF 2005.

Aug 28, 2005 Frothy, creamy white head. Lasts and forms a cobweb. Floral and herbal aroma. Spicies are felt: quite some coriander. Perfumes. Very pleasant, lively mouthfeel. Very hoppy, bitter flavors. A bit sweet as well. Feels coriander and herbs. Long bitter finish. Very well complements a dinner!

Aug 7, 2005 Bottle at GBBF 05. Spicy aroma. Slightly lemony, faintly tart falvour, with some cakey sweetness to finish. A slightly astringent mixture. Average Belgian (stye) ale.

Aug 7, 2005 Bottled - GBBF 2005. A hazy amber coloured beer with a little whitish head. The aroma is quite boring and non-descript. The taste is a bit yeasty and lemony. Quite dull really.

Mar 25, 2005 Updated: Aug 16, 2007Bottled. Pepper, coreander, sweet fruits quite complex aroma. Dark yellow color, hazy, off-white head, few lace. Sweet, light bitterness to bitter in the finish, fruity, pineapple?, peppery finish, little sticky. Not bad at all but so spicy that I couldn’t drink it all evening.
