Dec 12, 2006 Bottle: Yellow, light head and lacing. Nose of zesty hops and dry sweet malt, some sage and lemon. The flavor is balanced with some nice malt and a dry/bitter hopping. Not very belgian with all the herbal notes.

Dec 10, 2006 Bottled. Nutbrown colour, small white head. Aroma is yeast, cartboard. berries and some hops. Flavour is nuts. fruits and slight yeast. Also slight alcohol to be notes. Quite a watery brew for being 7%. No winterwarmer... nor that much Christmas in it...

Dec 8, 2006 Pours orange brown with a large uneven white bubble structured head. Very nice aroma of banana, clove, orange peel, and spices. Lighter fruity peppery flavor with a subtle dry bitter finish. Carbonation level is just about right, by my tastes. Slight metallic flavor is noted as well. Other than being a little on the thin side, it’s a pretty decent representative. However, at around $13 a bottle, there are many cheaper belgians which blow this one away.

Dec 5, 2006 Pours bright copper into a tulip. Offwhite fluffy head leaves sheet lacing and mounds as it slowly recedes. Sour brewing aromas. Dry with a lasting, sharp bitter finish.

Dec 5, 2006 Well, not all Belgians can be winners. This one taste off, like bad vegetables. Its got a nicely fizzy head with decent malts, but their is a subtle taste of pepper that is unpleasant. This is not a winner

Dec 5, 2006 The aroma has vegetables, red peppers, herbs, yeast, and malt. The appearance is orange gold with a foamy head. The flavor is like the aroma and not good. The palate is smooth. I think this is one of the most disappointing beers ever.

Nov 25, 2006 This is a good beer but I would be very unhappy if I had purchased this for the retail of $30. A dry, well-hopped bee. Lots of chalk. This is very well carbonated and the thick head as well as the abundance of bubbles in the golden liquid make this better looking than most. The body is fairly heavy. In addition to chalk, there is some clove and other light spices as well. Some yeast is in there but plays a minor role. Clearly well made, but I don’t know how it sells at the price they are asking. Thanks to Joebrew for this one.
