| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 16, 2008 Pours an amber color with a white head. Aroma is of toasted malts mostly with some fruits and caramel malts. Flavor is the same with little carbonation. Interesting but I would stick with true Belgians. gunhaver (1043), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 15, 2008 Bottle, courtesy sdeaf. Huge white head on a copper tea colored pour. Thick, foamy lacing. Nose is spicy, tangy, prominent Belgian feel. Pear and other fruits. Flavor is definitely down that same path, with spices, pears, zest, some distant hops, and a nice yeast tang in the finish. Smooth, decent body, light, drinkable, not that spicy in the finish. Enjoyed it. fishingnet (1047), Brandon, Florida, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jul 9, 2008 Bottle courtesy CigarCityBrew. Pours a slightly hazy copper with a very large off-white head that leaves some lacing. Aroma of light fruit, pale malt, and spicy yeast. Taste is the same as aroma. Medium thin mouthfeel with a mild amount of bitterness and very high carbonation. Decent. milewide (622), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 8, 2008 Some tripel spiciness with a lingering hop bitterness. Amber color and medium body. Medium head, less than most Belgian style beers. sebletitje (1999), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 6, 2008 Courtesy of Gunhaver. Nose was funky and fresh, reminded me of a farm, maybe earthy.
Aroma had a light taste of yeast and spices and malty. Fruity, notes of raisins.
Mouthfeel is thick. pintsize (1042), Austin, Texas, USA

Semi medium thick amber with okay head. Lots of thick sediment floating around. Smell is huge citris and has some balancing malt in there. Taste is big orange rind. Drinkable and decent. lb4lb (2011), Austin, Texas, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 4, 2008 Pours rich orange and opaque with floaties. Smell is funky, ashy, burnt citrus like. Taste is mild, and a funky burnt citrus flavor as well. Some orange rind and dry citrusy malty flavor. Interesting, but not great. slimchill (783), Austin, Texas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 2, 2008 Bottle. Light fruit and spice. Burnt orange notes in the flavor and aroma. A very clear pour (except for the last one), bright orange and leaving nice thick lacing. Some earthy flavors, a touch of chocolate and citrus with a bitter finish. Very drinkable.
