Bottle. Thanks to WeeHeavySD for sharing. Pours a very cloudy yellow-amber with a thick, fluffy white head. Sweet aroma of yeast, hops, cloves, banana. Smooth taste, lots of spices, yeast and a bit of a hoppy bite. Light lingering spicy bitterness. Very tasty.

Sep 6, 2008 Amazing banana/clove yeast funk in both aroma and taste, though kept in check and mild. Golden and crisp, perfect carbonation. Not the most complex Belgian Strong ale, but perfectly made and very enjoyable. Simple yet excellent.

Sep 4, 2008 Pours a beautiful gold, with a classic Belgian head. Remarkably full aroma, with strong citrus notes, apple and baking spices (would complement apple pie wonderfully). A bit hot (appropriately, I guess), with yeast, hops, lots of spices and a very smooth, dry finish - just a bit tart. This one is incredibly drinkable.

Sep 3, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of citrus fruits, maybe some apple, melon, light spices, zestiness. Flavor moderately sweet with enough balancing hops and an ever-so-subtle tartness. Quite easy drinking, a very nice brew.

Sep 3, 2008 Bottle courtesy of inkubus27. Pours a cloudy light orange with a small disappearing white head. Aroma of raisin, light fruits, brown sugar. Flavor initially of lemony/citrusy hops, melon rind, slight raisin, alcohol, Belgian yeast, some vegetal notes. Very complex and dry (as advertised). Smooth drinking and delicious.

Aug 31, 2008 Pours hazy gold with white head. The nose it fruity (peach?) and herbal with some sugary notes. Tastes sort of like lemon lime and its pretty bitter. Medium body with high carbonation and a semisweet finish. Nice beer.
