Pours a golden color with a thick white head that leaves a great lace. Aroma of sweet fruits, hops and bready yeast. Flaors of candy sugar, banana, and slight hop bitterness. Fairly dry finish. Overall a pretty good Belgian ale, especially for the price.

Dec 5, 2009 I’ve seen this beer many times before but never purchased. Aroma of a tripel. Cloves, grape, and biscuit like flavors. Very much like a tripel with a lighter ABV. This is pretty solid. You could drink more of these and not have the buzz effects of a more powerful tripel style.

Dec 5, 2009 Tasted at Beer Dabbler event in St. Paul. I like this beer more than I probably should have. Maybe because I had been by a lot of local booths that just were not up to this kind of quality. I found this to be a nice, bright Belgian with a lot of holiday spice, some licorice and banana. Taste stay in your mouth the perfect amount of time, leaving you with the desire for another taste.

Dec 2, 2009 Poured clear and dark golden in color with a fizzy white head and a stream of upwardly mobile bubbles. The aroma was bread, yeast, malt and light citrus. The flavor was citrus, yeast and malts. Overly carbonation. Harsh mouthfeel. OK. Would make a good gateway brew.

Nov 30, 2009 11.2 oz bottle. Pours a near clear yellow golden with a nice white forthy head. Aroma is very estery, Belgian yeast up the wazoo, doughy, very triple like. Flavor follows exactly, the bottle is a bit less attenuated than when I had this in Belgium, doughy, sugary sweet, very estery, yeasty. I good drinker but I think I prefered this in Belgium when it seemed lighter.

Nov 25, 2009 On tap from the Gingerman Fort Worth. Clear, dark, yellow pour with no head. Faint grain aroma. Tastes a little spicy with banana flavor all over the place. It’s like a terribly thin hef.
