This beer has a pleasant hoppy aroma, a nice head, and a good rich taste. It tastes more like you might expect a blonde to taste, but that’s all good for me.

Poured amber brown with a nice head. Some roasted malts. Not much of a Belgian double, but a smooth, drinkable beer.

33cl bottle. Pours amber brown with a small creamy white head and lacings. Nose is sweet of caramel, banana and yeast. Smooth and soft mouthfeel, a bit thin perhaps. Vaguely citric. Weird combination of to many sweet things. Unbalanced and cloying.

Bottle, pours brown with shades of red...a nice tan head. Smells sweet and spicey, really big aroma with some cinnemon. Taste is nice and sweet with a light malt backround giving way to a nice bitterness. The sweetness seems to fade to bitter and slightly sour. Very nice balance. Finishes with a light alcohol burn. Good stuff!

2008-03-08. Dark amber body with a good sized beige head. Dusty malt aroma, tangy malt. Sweet tangy malt flavour, light fruity notes, sugars. Slightly fuller than average palate is quite effervescent. (3+) Decent, average Belgian.
Bottle from Delhaize, last minute sampling session at my hostel, Brussels

Bottle 33 cl. Pours brown with a small off-white head and a thin sweet smell. Flavor is strongly sweet, malty (seems there are roasted malts in it too), caramel and brown sugar. Some spices, some bitter hops, some chocolate, I really like it. The flavor reminds of Rochefort 6. Nice hoppy, roasted finish. I really like it
