Has caramel and honey notes in the nose, medium body with subtle spices and honey. However, Elysian often impresses me!

Good belgian ale yeast taste and aroma. That's about all that was going on though. A little dissapointing, but Elysian doesn't often impress me.

A cloudy pale golden color with a white head. The aroma is of banana and spices. A nice spice in the flavor as well and a good bitter aftertaste that lingers.

Gold, with a prickly carbonation and a nice spicy flavor. Orangey, but with a pepperiness and a bit of underbrush in a medium bodied, Belgian tasting ale, more characterful than most Belgian brewed "regular strength" ales.

Rather too blonde appearance with a creamyish head. This beer was quite spicy, with a peppery, wheat aroma and a spicy, wheaty flavor with punches of yeast. A nice, light zing.
