Aug 11, 2008 On Tap at the Freakin Frog Las Vegas NV.
Pours a golden clear color with a small white head. Aroma of yeasts, esthers, malt, hops, fruits. Flavor is banana, clove, spices, yeasts, citrus, fruits, hops. Lots of carbonation and very crisp. Also, I enjoyed this much better on tap than I did from the bottle.

Aug 11, 2008 Sampled on draft in a trappist glass at Max’s Taphouse in Baltimore. A very clear gold color with a small white head that had short retention. A fruity, banana and orange aroma with some citrus and earthy hops, and a bit of yeast; not a strong aroma. The taste was a sweet, lightly fruity one with a sour finish, and a tad short on character. Very wet and smooth in the mouth, with low carbonation and a lighter/thinner feel, a bit too watery.

Aug 10, 2008 Great example of a Belgian that knows how to balance carbonation with a medium body without going fizzy on you. Really young, yeasty, apple butter and sugar aroma and flavor. Very enjoyable but I think one bottle will do the trick in one night because it is pretty sweet. Very light in the color for a strong ale and reminds me of an abbey triple. Very good beer.

Aug 10, 2008 Updated: Aug 17, 2008Everytime i pour this stuff i can’t get over the head on this stuff. So much head that you think it’ll turn into the blob and eat your wife and kids.
You get a lot of fruit on the nose, and it’s very hazey.
The Bottle is even cool too, looking like a piece of Ceramic.
The bubble structure reminds me of Champagne.
Be aware, the Carbanation in this 8.5% ABV makes this a quick buzz. The beer goes right to your liver and kicks it until you cry.
One of my favorate Belgians ! But Be aware, don’t piss of the Pink Elephant, he’ll go over and sit on your face until your endtrails shoot out of you !
