| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Aug 3, 2008 Pours an amber/orange color with a thin white, creamy and frothy head. The beer has the aroma of citrus, sweet malt, and a lot of yeast with a bit of a fizzy-like carbonation.
It has a medium body with a somewhat syrupy/oily - more on the oily side texture with light carbonation on the palate.
The taste starts off moderately sweet and the finish a bit bitter with a little bit of alcohol. Good Belgium strong! definitely going to look for this one again in the future! illinismitty (1797), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
