Norton (294), The Fan, Richmond, Virginia, USA Jan 9, 2008 BottleSuper citrusy fresh yeast aroma! Murky pale gold. Off white head sticks around. Warm going down throat. Definite alchol presence but works well with medium carbonation and intense sweet/hoppy flavor. nothing extremely groundbreaking but enjoyable. thedm (3833), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Jan 7, 2008 This corked, which was marked 12/06, and caged bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a large sized head of foamy finely sized white colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a hazy with floating yeast chunks softly carbonated deep orange colored body and a good lacing. The aroma was mild soft malts and mild coriander. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a distinct Belgian Strong Ale flavor. The flavor contained notes of coriander Salz hops? and vinous malt. Delicious and one I would certainly buy again. matt7215 (942), Cambridge, Ontario, Canada Jan 6, 2008 330 ml bottle from a trade with paco. pours very hazy golden with a huge white head and lots of sediment. aromas are yeasty with sweet malts and lots of hops but some how not very alluring. everything i look for in aromas is present but i didnt find it overly enticing. flavour are big and powerful with yeast, malts, and hops all there but this beer is a little rough around the edges. alcohol came through near the endof the flavour profile. overall pretty enjoyable but not something id have very often. LiebeBier (788), Annapolis, Maryland, USA Jan 5, 2008 Bottle - Hazy orange/yellow color with a huge rocky white head. Citrus fruit and spice aroma. A zesty, yeasty fruity flavor. Excellent beer with perfect level of Carbonation. downender (2537), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Dec 31, 2007 Bottle. Hazy, pale orange colour with a big, white, creamy head. Aroma of yeast, orange, honey and coriander. The flavour was sweet with some melon and spice and a decent bitter finish. Good. bhensonb (4187), Woodland, California, USA Dec 24, 2007 Floral, fruity hop aromas. Hazy orange tinged gold color with small chunks. A rocky white head that tries to lace. Medium body with fluffy carbonation. Honeyed malt with lots of flavors: citrus, other fruit, herbs. A bit astringent despite a persistent sweetness. The finish is dryish and lightly hopped, but not excessively bitter. The alcohol is not really noticeable, and this drinks quite easily. rederic (1787), montréal, Quebec, Canada Dec 19, 2007 Slight cloudy gold hue, with a frothy white head, yeasty, zesty, citrus, fruity nose, with some spicy flowery hops, some honeyed pale malt notes, with a faint vanilla, candi sugar sweetness in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, subtle bubblegum, sweet honeyed pale malt character, with some herbal floral hops, some fruity mango, candied lemon peel and pineapple accents, with a nice mellow warmth alcoholic mouthfeel, leading towards a warm, sweet malty finish. Maria (6056), Thisted, Denmark Dec 17, 2007 Hazy amber with a very nice head. The aroma is sweetish with notes of fruit. This goes for the flavour too, and here I find even more notes of fruit, citrus mostly. It has a nice hoppy bitterness to balance the sweetness. The alcohol is IMO a bit too dominant, especially in the last part of the flavour.
