Aug 6, 2008 I want to have this beer’s babies. I’m currently basking in the glory of $14 bottles of this stuff and life is pretty bloody good. Despite its size there’s nothing too obvious about it, but there’s lemony hops, peppery yeast, vanilla ice cream malt and some gin-like alcohol warmth, though it really is ridiculously easy to drink for its size - I’d say it appears noticeably less boozy than the Moinettes. Very hoppy in an extremely low key way, if that’s possible. Everything it beautifully rounded, everything is in place, and it tastes as good as I recall it from Belgium. Love it. Even better than Saison Dupont.

Jul 19, 2008 Bottle. Musty apple cider aroma. Hazy golden yellow color with an insanely giant head. Initially a slightly sweet apple cider followed by a musty, dry malt flavor. Dryness lingers nicely after swallowing. Premiere.

Jul 19, 2008 Bouteille de 750 ml verte foncée, bu à Brouhaha à Montreal le 18/7/08. Blonde brumeuse dorée, un peu de collet. Arome de malté épicé, herbe de provence, un peu sûrette. Goût de malte sec épicé, orge doux, légèrement houblonné avec une amèrturme agréable et elle devient sucré avec le temps. Une bonne beilege forte bien balancée!
