Oct 29, 2009 Bottle pours a bit cloudy, with a golden yellow color and a thin white head. Typical Belgian strong ale aroma of yeast and spices. Nice flavor with a good amount of hop bitterness in the dry finish. Highly carbonated mouthfeel.

Oct 6, 2009 On tap at the brewery right before the Friday session of GABF. Golden color with a lasting white head and some lacing. Aroma is banana, clove, yeast, and spice. Flavor is pale malt, Belgian yeast, banana, spice, and bubble gum. Almost reminiscent of Russian River Damnation. Palate is a bit thin and watery, but still rounds out well on the finish. This is a solid Belgian-style golden ale, underrated.

Jan 24, 2009 pours lite gold color with effervescent bubbles. aroma is predictably yeasty and citrusy. taste is same, with a little more hoppiness than most belgian ales. but in the end, fairly middle of the road. not a bad thing, but not particularly exciting or surprising here.

May 22, 2009 Bottle. Translucent gold with a short white head. Aroma is strong Belgian yeast, fruit notes, candy, and spicy/peppery notes. Taste is sweet malts, bread dough, peppery spice, Belgian yeast, dried fruit and candy fruit. Bit of grassy hops and honey as well. Body is light-medium and very bubbly, though more dense than spritzy. Ends with stronger spicy notes, flowers, grass, dried fruit, yeast notes, toasted malt and candy. Nice!

Dec 27, 2008 Definitely a success from Great Divide. Lots of Belgian yeast in the aroma and flavor. Lightly sweet with some candy sugar, but mild on the palate and as the description says, it would pair well with virtually anything.
