Sep 24, 2008 On tap at Trappeze. Pours a hazy pale gold with a moderate white head. Aroma of spicy hops, yeast, faint citrus. Taste is heavily bitter and somewhat fruity. Body is moderate, and beer drinks nicely. Finish is bitter. Overall, a solid brew.

Sep 21, 2008 Bottle at the Eulogy Belgian Tavern in Philly. Hazy sunflower pour under a medium rocky white head. Spicy aroma of fresh cut grass. Crisp hoppy flavor but with an orange zest rather than grapefruit profile. No pine forest in this glass. Very dry finish. Not a traditional Belgian by any means and not a hop bomb either (though I had just finished a Stone Ruination before sampling this one).

Sep 21, 2008 bottle 330ml at Gallows Bird Espoo 080908 hazy dark yellow lacing Taste: very pleasant strong bitterness in malty and bit fruity ground. Perfume like. Ten years ago when I tasted first time this was too hoppy for my taste now just regular

Sep 17, 2008 Draft. Perhaps this was the inspiration for the barrage of hoppy Belgian-style ales in the US right now. Dark golden hazy pour with fizzy white head. Tons of bitter hops on top of a nice bit of Belgian yeast and malt to keep it balanced. A bit funky with resiny and citrusy hops. Some sweetness as well. Very good.

Sep 13, 2008 Pours pale/yellow in color, slightly cloudy with a small head. Smells of yeast, hops and malts. First sip is more bitter than hoppy. The malty backbone nicely compliments the strong hops. Strong yeasts also add to this beer’s intense flavor. A strong bitter with above average carbonation. A fine showing.

Sep 8, 2008 Bottle. Pours a hazy golden/amber with a one finger white head that doesn’t stick around long. The nose on this is amazing. Spicy, grassy hops, honey, candi sugar, hints of a slight bretty funk, yeasty with some citrus. The flavor was a little backed off from the nose. Dry, honey malt flavor, spicy brett touch, grassy hops, and a long bitter finish. Quite lush in the mouth and drying finish.
