Oct 21, 2007 Updated: Dec 19, 2007Bottle. Golden straw color with an oily thin head. Spiced, sweet belgian nose with some definite yeast and light hops. Some fruit in there also - apples, pear. Shallow flavor and a really short finish. Drinkable, but not that great.

Oct 19, 2007 The aroma was fruity with a light spice and a bit of very light caramel. The beer poured crystal clear pale golden with a white moderate head which lasted like a champ to lace the glass. The flavor was lightly sweet with a light caramel malt character and nice spice which was understated. The bittering was low and the malt character was low as well. The finish was dry with no outstanding characteristics. The body was medium with a moderate carbonation and a creamy texture on the palate. Alcohol was restrained throughout. Pepper was about the only thing going for this beer. It was nice and easy to drink, but just really did not exhibit the characteristics of a Belgian Ale that rings in at 7% ABV.
22 ounce bottle.

Oct 15, 2007 Hops, yeast and citrus aroma with a light malty character. Golden yellow with a white foamy head. Malty light citrus, hay-like qualities with good balance of bitter and sweet. Even carbonation with a creamy mouth feel and dryish finish. Pretty good overall.

Oct 15, 2007 22 oz bomber. Crystal clear appearance with a very pale straw colour. White head that is slightly sticky and leaves decent lacing. Light spicy aroma, with soft clove and a light yeasty character over a pale Belgian maltiness. A hint of bubble gum and lemony character. Slightly minty with a cooling anaesthetic hoppiness. They are clearly going for the Duvel vote and while this brew isn’t nearly as elegant it gets more things right than it gets wrong. Light peach/apricot fruitiness with a soft spicy perfume and a hint of soft vanilla in the back. Lovely brew and significantly better than the ratings up to now would seem to indicate.
