Flavor is creamy banana and over-ripe apple with some yeasty mustiness and some very spicy, woody, and floral hop presence. Very well rounded. Mouthfeel is full and smooth. Maybe not the most traditional belgian but certainly a very good beer. adrian910ss (1432), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

Spicy aroma with hints of banana, honey, nutmeg and pepper. Taste is pleasantly spicy with honey, banana and peppery undertones. Similar to Victory Golden Monkey, yet lighter with less alcohol. Very good. Beerdedone (1885), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jan 26, 2007 THOUGHTS: Pleasant flavor but all the flavor was in the front of the mouth, with hardly any in the back. The aroma was also nice, but seemed a little too much like fruit juice. More flavor came out in the back as it warmed. Good for Flying Fish, but not a great beer.
TECHNICAL: Bottle. Poured a light amber with a small, white head that mostly diminished. The aroma was light malt a little hops, light yeast. Also grape, apple and shite wine. The initial flavor was moderately sweet and lightly acidic, while the finish was moderately to heavily sweet and lightly acidic and bitter. with a short duration. The body was light to medium and dry with fizzy carbonation and a metallic chalky finish that was also a bit watery and thin. lukin013 (211), Columbia, Maryland, USA

Flavor is lemony and dry like a belgian but more peppery like a saison. Body is a little on the thin side. thehinge (245), Wilmington, Delaware, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 28, 2006 Honey colored pour with a smallish head. Aroma of fruits....bananas, I think.
Plenty of fruity malts in this....bananas and citrus. I’m not a big of Belgian styles, but this is very good. Volgon (2489), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 27, 2006 Bottle: Cloudy orange with a thin white head and suspended particles. Sweet malts, dough, bread and spices in the armoa, full bodied, mild carbonation and a light rich ending, starts and ends lightly sweet, apoptosis (1316), Long Island, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 18, 2006 Crystal-clear, golden body with a frothy white head...The beer just doesn’t quite look right for a Belgian - it is too filtered, too clean. The aroma is also very mild - somewhat herbal and grassy, dry..The flavor is filled with malts. It is not very complex.
