poured slightly golden harmony in color. clear. nose of fruity earthen herbs. slightly sweet on the tongue and very belgiumesque feel with the yeasties. some rock candy and ginger snap flavors. easy to drink and quite good since its not as "big" of a beer as its counterparts. my girlfriend dug it while we we sampling some cheese. if thats any idication of how mild this one may be.

Jan 2, 2010 Bottle. Yellow/orange/golden color with a very clear body. Little bit of white head, not much though. Smells of Belgian style yeasts and spices, as a friend I shared it with put it "it smells like a nursing home." Wasn’t sure what I expected out of this one but I wasn’t a huge fan. Tasted like a classic Belgian with some ginger thrown in, not a good mix for me. I was happy to get to try this one, but not overall impressed by it. Won’t be buying it again.

Dec 29, 2009 color is a weak yellow orange with lots of bubbly, aroma is of spices and ginger, flavor is like a very thin triple with added fruits. Mouthfeel is a little grainy. Dissapointing. Bottle from Stop and Shop next to Titianic in Miami.

Dec 29, 2009 Bottle thanks to a friend. Pour is ever so slightly hazy golden color with a thin white head. Aroma is malt, orange, light pepper, and alcohol. Flavor is solid but nothing too crazy. Light citrus flavor, corriander, caramel malt, light pepper, maybe ginger if your on drugs, and light alcohol. As I drink this, I have one overwhelming thought: Why do Dogfish Head beers cost so much? It’s certainly not due to superior flavor. This is solid, it’s fine, I could drink it for hours. Its not unique, it’s not above average. I am done with purchasing expensive beer from Delaware. Im glad to have tried this, and I even more glad that I did not have to pay for it.

Dec 27, 2009 Pours a crisp straw color with a thin soapy head which fades to a ring and leaves a few rainy streaks on the glass. Aroma is burnt popcorn, light citrus, and some yeastiness. Taste is much like a tripel - light bitterness, thicker mouthfeel, and some toasted malts and citrus. Pretty drinkable. Not bad.

Dec 27, 2009 Pours a clean light golden color with thin white head. Aroma is of sharp grains and light ripe fruit and mild Belgian yeast. Taste is light Beligan spices, clove, light ginger and light fruit. Palate is clean with medium complexity. Overall, it’s like a lightly spiced tripel. Not a big tripel fan but this seemed well done.

Dec 27, 2009 A very unique beer with great concept. gold orange colored beer with thin film of a head. Smell was a bit or ginger and spice. Taste was a little light up front but ended with a root beer/ cola finish. texture was sharp carbonation at first but ended with a creaminess.
