Aug 18, 2002 Opaque light orange colour; thick, creamy head considering how much alcohol this has; aroma shows orange, melon, alcohol, spice (thyme, mint, anise); firm body; yeasty, malty palate, dry from alcohol, more fruit (apricot, pear). I love the yeast-fruit interplay.

Jan 9, 2003 Slightly hazy golden color. Creamy, rocky lasting head. Tiny particles floating around. Aroma of sour yeast, doughy, spices, coriander, orange. Bit blond taste, not triple-like. Hoppy. Acidic palate.

Jan 2, 2003 Also very good, but not as great at the Malheu 12% (see rating). Sour dough-like nose. Hazy pale blond color and a lacy head. Juice-like tastes up front yielding to a fresh hoppiness in the end. Thinish, but a high quality beer.

Feb 21, 2004 Murky golden with a dollop of white foam on top.Nose is yeasty, slightly spicy with honey and grass dominating. Medium body with a herbal candy like flavor at the front. The herbal bitterness seems to fade in the middle, ending up with a sweet dry finish.

Nov 6, 2007 Sampled bottle, RBNAG 2007 in Grimstad. ABV was 10%. Pale golden colour, fluffy white head. Surprisingly moderate aroma, slightly spicy. Fruity and spicy flavour, pleasant to drink, the ABV is well hidden, well balanced.

May 24, 2005 Bottled. Golden beer with a consistent whispy head, the aroma is fermented and bitter, and the flavour is strong, bitter, dry and fermented slightly. Overall a reasonable Belgian effort.

Jul 22, 2007 Pours a bit on the cloudy side with a big sticky head. The aroma is phenols and fruit. A little melon and the fruitiness of a chile pepper. The flavor is sweet and not really backed up by enough bitterness.

May 30, 2007 Attractive white head, yellow body. Curious nose with a yeast note. The alcohol is in the aroma’s essence but not as much in the flavor, which is fruity (melon + lemon). A little astringent on the palate.
