Jul 17, 2008 This yellow bottled beer has an enormous fluffy head. The aromas and flavours seems very typically Belgian to this drinker more accustomed to British and American beers: slightly sour and spicy and quite fizzy on the tongue. It’s well made -- I can’t really fault it -- but I don’t think I’d seek it out.

Jul 16, 2008 Bottle @ home. This stuff is native to my fridge. Beautiful golden yellow colour, enormous thick and rocky white head. Aroma of yeast, some malts and fruits. Flavour is sharp/peppery, malty, bittersweet and when it warms up a bit sour. Long lasting alcohol finish with a little bitterness. Mouthfeel is soft though, making it highly drinkable. This one slaps you right in the face, be careful!

Jul 15, 2008 330mL Bottle. Strong yeasty and fruity aroma, almost like a homebrew. Slight cloudy and pale yellow beer. Strong white head thats long lasting. Smooth malty taste with a bit of spice, you can notice the high alc in the taste. Hits your fast at 8.5%. Very easy to drink, no strong hop/malt after taste, but very pleasant - very drinkable.

Jul 12, 2008 750ml bottle from John’s Grocery.
Aroma: Very malty, hint of alcohol, spicy and intense, yeasty.
Appearance: Looks exactly like the picture. Very pretty bright color, light and golden, almost like white grape juice. Huuuuge white head that literally takes up half a tulip glass. Head dissipates very slowly and extremely lacy.
Flavor: Small amounts of hops. Lots of alcohol. Slightly bitter and very malty. Initially sweet and very strong finish.
Palate: Smooth, light, lots of carbonation and alcohol.
Overall: Good! Intense for an ale, but thats Belgium for you. Strong alcohol taste throughout the sip, but not in the aftertaste. Banana at end? Not quite a session beer, but I enjoyed it.
