Dec 2, 2008 This was a beligian style ale that tasted as expected, not very good. It had a flat taste to it with little carbonation like a normal belgian. The taste was almost artificial. I had a 2007 bottle and maybe it was not aged long enough.

Nov 20, 2008 12oz bottle, 2008 vintage. Pours golden with a slight orange hue, capped with a fairly large off-white head. Aroma is fairly sweet with notes of tropical fruit, honey, banana and yeast. Flavor is sweet as well, with citrus and tropical fruit. White pepper and spice round out the palate and stick around for a fairly long finish. Drinkable, but a bit too sweet for me.

Oct 29, 2008 Hazy light orange color with smells of oranges, grapes and a little summer spice. Taste is like sweet grapes with some banana and honey. The sweet flavors stick around for a while. This is good!

Oct 4, 2008 Pours a decent cap of head with a bit of saaz coming up in the aroma. Quite a bit of sweetness in here. The esters jump in, but I get a little phenolic character as well. Adequate body and mouthfeel, but there’s an ever-present amount of sweetness that just brings this out of balance. Not a bad drink, but I wonder if the "belgian-style" came as a result of accidentally fermenting at too high of a temperature and incorrectly thinking "lot’s of esters" equate to "belgian-style"?
