| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 7, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a slightly hazy dark gold body with a white head that vanished quickly. Nice fruity nose with lots of banana esters and a hefty alcohol vapor. The flavor is very fruity as well, with banana, clove, and marshmellow. The moderate alcohol keeps it from being really easily drinkable though. Moderate pale doughy maltiness. Mouthfeel is full bodied and thick with a texture that’s just shy of syrupy. Moderate fizzy carbonation. Overall, this wasn’t anytjing special really, but it did exceed my expectations. argo0 (6897), Washington DC, USA

Aroma is medium sweet, grassy, some honey, alcohol artingency. Taste is medium sweet, honey, some cantaloupe, light grassy. Watery medium body. kmweaver (2459), Sebastopol, California, USA

Sugar, honey, and intricate yeast in the aroma; pleasant enough. Medium mouthfeel: chewy Belgian sugar, yeast, and bread; very basic, drinkable Belgian ale; high levels of carbonation. Medium finish: sugar, yeast, and esters; a metallic touch. ryan (1776), Beltsville, Maryland, USA
