Vas19 (292), Maryland, USA Mar 6, 2009 Pours clear golden with a white head. Aroma of malt, yeast, honey, and spice. Flavor is grassy malts and spice with a bit of lemon. Clean and crisp. Decent. jgentgesdo (564), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA Mar 4, 2009 Pours hazy pale yellow with a smallish white head. Strong yeast, clove, honey in the nose. Flavor is initially spicy yeasts and hops with a trend towards a nice honeyed malty backbone. Ends clean. Pretty good. curly (548), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Mar 2, 2009 Butter’s 4th cellar reduction. Slightly hazy yellow with a quickly disappearing white head. Sweet lemon, honey and clove aromas. Not nearly enough bitterness to go with the sweet but it is quite refreshing. daknole (2800), Plantation, Florida, USA Mar 1, 2009 Bottle from acknud. Pours a fairly clear gold color wtih a small white head. Aroma is heavy on the yeast and a grainy malt character. Flavor has some malty sweetness and a hint of yeast..but the flavor is lemony and a bit bitter. Not sure about this one. GD needs to stick to what they know. Butters (1622), Virginia, USA Mar 1, 2009 Bottle at the Fourth Butters’ Cellar Clearance Event. Pours a hazy yellow with large white head. Aroma of lemon citrus, clove, slight yeast notes. Flavor is clean, crisp, refreshing, with pepper, and clove. Solid example of a belgian hefe. Barrios (852), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Mar 1, 2009 12 oz bottle at Butters’ 4th Cellar Reduction. Pours a white lacing head with a hazy golden body. Smells of yeast, banana, citrus, and clove. Tastes the same but with a cloying sweetness. Acknud (770), Morganfield, Kentucky, USA Feb 23, 2009 No color, little head. Aroma is heavy on corn and the taste, while there are a few spices, is mostly of a cheap pale lager. There are way better Belgians out there. fezzik20 (8), USA does not count Feb 22, 2009 An almost golden appearance in my glass. Enjoyable beer--more drinkable than most beers I drink. Definitely is Belgian style, reminiscent of some Tripels I have had but obviously much more lightweight. Not much in the aroma department and fewer hops than I anticipated but the taste is surprisingly good. Flowery, banana taste. Good mouthfeel.
