Bottle from Beer Circus, Croyden. Bright amber with no head, but beautiful nonetheless. Sweet yeasty aroma. Taste of honey and orange with a salty finish and bitter edge. Full, syrupy body. I really liked it.

Muddy coloration very pretty orange. Cream dense, consistent, persistent and very lightly orange. Aroma of malt and spices. I felt a light suggestion of oregano. Very complex in the palate, following the aroma. Ideal carbonation and alcoholic level. The texture is licorous, dense, delicious. The end is soft and pleasant. Without a doubt, a great beer............................................PO Coloração turva laranja muito linda. Creme denso, consistente, muito persistente e levemente alaranjado. Aroma de malte e especiarias. Senti uma leve sugestão de orégano. Muito complexa no paladar, acompanhando o aroma. Carbonatação ideal. Álcool inserido na medida. A textura é licorosa, densa, deliciosa. O final é suave e agradável. Sem dúvida, uma grande cerveja.

Light golden orange colour with fizzy head. Pleasant yeasty aroma. Smooth drinking middle mouthfeel. Seems like a discount on the 10% abv. Good Belgium with fruit, some bannana and peach and spice and pepper melange. Mild citrus.

Cloudy orange and moderate sediment. Lots of white foam and a long-lasting head. It looks great in my Delirium Tremens glass with the etching on the bottom. The aroma has sweet malt and oregano. Flavor is surprisingly dry. It does get sweeter as it warms, but this sweetness is malt and sugar. Salty and some coriander in the finish. Unfortunately it lacks complexity but it does have a good palate. I was hoping for more of an Abbot rather than quad.

Bottle. Poured hazy brown color with an average fizzy light brown head that lasted with good fizzy lacing. Solid complex tart fruit and alcohol aroma. Medium body with a sticky texture. Medium sweet complex flavor with a solid bittersweet finish of moderate duration. Solid drinkable beer.

Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours hazy copper with an off-white head. Aroma of citrus, yeast, spices, and alcohol. Flavor is sweet, carbonated, yeast, and slight fruit.

Clear copper orange pour beneath a snow white head which leaves great lacing. The aroma is a bit of cider, malt, and alcohol along with some yeast and fruit. The flavor is tangy, sweet, and a bit fruity. There is an astringent alcohol flavor with a toasty malt at the back of the throat that has a sweet aspect and finishes with a light alcohol tingle. Pretty nice flavors and balance.
