Tap GTMW 2008 Aroma is belgian, yeasty, oranges, and a lot of sweetness. Taste is sweet-spicy, belgian orange and hoppy. Finishes cloying, slightly bitter. Nice, spicy, hoppy beer. Enjoyable.

Bottle from ucusty. Thanks dude! Aroma although a little subdued due to age is nice and hoppy with some grapefruit and orange citrus notes. Orange golden pour with a thin head. The hoppy citrus combines nicely with the belgian aspect of this one; the yeasty banana, clove, spice, and sweet candy sugar. Light hops in the form of citrus and sweet spicy yeasty esters are the flavor profile. Banana candy, a touch of caramel malt perhaps?, and some alcohol. Does not drink like 10.5% at all, as the warming effect is slight and welcome. This was a nice BSA.

[1406-20080530] Bottle. Citrus grassy hops aroma has lots of orange peel and a hint of lemon juice. Hazy, medium orange brown body with a quick off-white bubbly head. Tasty grapefruit sweet navel orange citrus flavour has grassy bitter hoppiness. Medium body is quite hoppy. Quite nice.

Sampled @ Hopcat’s. Too watery, felt like this was done wrong. Spices and simcoe hops dominated the aroma. Color was trasparent, nice head. The smell was a lot better than the taste. Missing something here. Not what I expected.

10oz draft at the brewery: Glowing orange pour with a creamy, thick head. The nose is all Simcoe to me, apricot, mango and lots of sweet orange. The body is sweet and rich with a plethora of Belgian-esque attributes. The Simcoe takes the place of a orange peel addition, adding a uniquely American aspect to a solid Belgian-style beer. The results are great - crisp and fresh tasting, the hops play off the wheat, banana and bubble gum adding a great complexity. Very easy to drink for a high ABV brew.
