Apr 21, 2009 Bottle. Aroma of hops. Dark yellow of color, hazy, with a large white head that quickly fades to a thin layer. Tastes very very hoppy, also in the aftertaste. I find this quite enjoyable at first, but finishing the bottle isn’t easy, You cannot really call this a subtle brew, but it’s not bad.

Apr 11, 2009 Cask - Planet Thanet Beer Festival ’09. Cloudy yellow in appearance with a frothy white head. Has a degree of nuttiness in both aroma and flavour deparments. Typically Belgian foundations built upon with a strong dose of hoppy bitterness throughout, balanced well with a nice amount of sweetness. Highly pleasant and lasting resiny bitter finish that’s crisp despite the thickish body. In your face at times but balanced well enough to make this a very tasty brew.

Apr 5, 2009 Bottle at The Publican in Chicago, IL 04/04/2009. Pours golden, slightly hazy with a creamy white lacing head of moderate size that leaves rings down the glass. Grassy, yeasty with some lemony citrus aroma.
Very hoppy, grassy, peppery. Creamy full feel with a nice spicy lingering bitterness. Really good complement to a rich dinner.

Apr 5, 2009 bottle, amber colour, solid tiny head, bitter yeasty, metalic,agressive bitter grass. I can’t lose the killing taste. Such a drink is not at all enjoyable because it’s predominant bitterness!

Mar 28, 2009 750 mL bottle from Weinhaus in Asheville, VA. The label mistakenly says 11.2 ounces. Bottled either June of 2007 or 2008, as the date on the bottle is precisely between two different years. This is my 100th rating of a Belgian beer. Pours a light golden color. Clear at first though there is clearly yeast lurking at the bottom of the bottle. Large rocky, frothy head. Good head retention and lacing. The brett is very strong in the aroma. Also notes of caramel, green apple, citrus and herbal, spicy hops. Taste is leafy, herbal hops in the forefront that give way to green apple, apricot and other fruit notes. Very light on the palate. Medium bodied. Softly carbonated.
