Braudog (3463), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Apr 28, 2008 Bottle: Poured orange-gold with just a initial fizzle of fizz. The aroma is quite estery, almost fruit salady. Drinks with a tart sweet edge, almost like fermented mandarin oranges, with the spiciness quite restrained. Easy to drink. (#3439, 4/28/2008)

Pours a translucent copper color with a big sudsy white head that has good retention. The aroma is that of a trippel with fresh apricots , persimmons and banana esters. The flavor is sweet with raw cane sugar, hazelnuts, and spicy fruits. The palate was a bit on the thin side. The finish was short and clean. Overall: A very easy drinking brew, but it lacks the complexity to compete with the best in its category. A very refreshing beer with no pretentiousness, thanks steve.
