| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 8, 2007 750ml Pours a hazy orange colour with a small sudsy white head.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 8, 2007 It is what is, a light, refreshing table beer. Pours hazy orange with a thick sudsy off-white head that leaves good lacing and retains well. The nose is of light fruits (mainly apple and pear), subdued caramel malt and some earthy hops. The flavour is short lived and mild, with tropical fruits, spice, booze and grain on the finish. The backbone is bready, doughy malts that are reminiscent of what can be tasted in oktoberfests. The palate is watery, chalky and cuts out almost immediately. A good beer to pair with a casual meal, but not intense enough to drink on its own. emerica56 (582), Bristol, Rhode Island, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Dec 8, 2007 This beer pours a cloudy orange and golden color with a ice thick head to it, also there is some nice spotted laceing along the sides of the glass. It has a nice strong aroma and there are some hints of carmel and some fall spices as well. As you drink it though the flavor is kind of bitter and it fades as quick as the beer goes down your throat. There are some earthy notes with some hints of honey. The palate duration is very short and almost non existant. TheEpeeist (1461), Swarthmore, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 6, 2007 25.4 oz bottle. 18 months old so i guess from the first release. Almost clear apple juice with a wisp and edging. Taste like the nose; honey, apricot and fresh baked bread. Light carb, medium light body, a little resiny. OK, but seems to have lost some crispness with aging. djtimeless (172), Florida, USA

Flavor is cereal hops with a malt highlight. Full mouthfeel. Pretty good brew. Buzzed at this point in the tasting. rayg1 (438), Ft. Mill, South Carolina, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 26, 2007 Picked up at the brewery in San Marcos. Pours out a dark golden color with a huge white head. Aroma is tart and slightly funky and a bit of spicy sweetness to it as well. As far as the taste of this thing goes I think I’ve found my first Lost Abbey beer I don’t like. Taste is bready and doughy with a bit of spice. Now I understand this is be expected in Biere de Garde but what I couldn’t get past was the awful flavor of vegetables. Very strange and very weird mix of bread and veggies that I didn’t like at all. Sorry.
