Nov 26, 2008 Updated: Dec 17, 2008Corked bottle picked up at Whole Foods, San Diego. Pours a slightly hazy golden/straw looking color, with a small white head. Aroma is dry and a little bit fruity. Some grain is noticeable as well. Very dry flavor up front with a little bit of fruit. Some sweetness follows. Finish seems to be somewhat spiced with a light hint of bitterness. The alcohol is very well hidden.

Dec 20, 2008 Bottle shared by bellportbeer. Pours a hazy gold with a long-lasting moderate white head that laced the glass very nicely. An incredible amount of floaties in this beer that seem to hang as if in suspended animation. Pleasant aroma of citrus, apples and sugar. The flavor is similar and is fairly sweet. Fairly strong alcohol burn at the finish.

Pours hazy golden.
Aroma, yeasty, grainy, close to honeyish.
Taste was fruity, with the yeast notes reminiscent of many Belgian ales.
Some nice sweet honey, with touch of fruit (apple).
Alcohol is well present, beer remains highly enjoyable.

Jun 20, 2006 small bottle 350ml (?) thaknks to xproudfood. Dark pour with a really large head. Aromas were good. Dark fruits and caramel. Flavors were good too. Much of the same, but with a lot of alcohol flavor. I think maybe a bit too much alocohol in the finish for me. But still pretty darn tasty.

Sep 30, 2007 Cloudy, light tangerine color, and frothy, but very over-carbonated. Strong yeasty aroma with alcohol fairly well masked considering it comes in at 10%. Rather cloying. Not there yet, could profit from aging and perhaps develop further.
