Nice golden orange color,small white head that faded quickly leaving a slight lace behind.Very nice fruity and mild hop aroma with maybe a mild hint of spice coming through as it warms up.Fruity flavor with a mild hop presence and the alcohol manages to stay fairly well hidden with the exception of a mild hint in the middle and warming effect at the end of the tasting.Very nice brew that i wish i had much more of and it definately doesn’t deserve thelow rating it has.Thanks to Flipbrewer for sending this fine rbew my way.

Oct 3, 2008 Bottle. Light amber with a quickly disapperaing white head. Aroma is extremely light but estery. Don’t notice much of the hop scent. Full mouthfeel with a sweet tinge throughout. Hop influence is barely felt, and I didn’t notice too much alchohol. Overall an okay California style Belgian, but a little too light for the style. Worth trying, especially because it’s sub-$5.

Jul 29, 2008 Pours a golden-amber color with a nice-looking frothy/sticky white head. Aromas are fairly light, on the grainy side with some hint of the sweet fruity estery qualities. Flavors were very sugary and floral, pretty strong on the alcohol side... no trace of bitterness. Mouthfeel was very syrupy and... along with the alcoholic "heat", made for a pretty intense brew. The alcohol does linger on for quite awhile, and I’m not sure if this beer is tasty enough to justify that. Pretty one-dimensional.

Jul 28, 2008 Pours golden with thin head. Aroma is full of yeasty esters. Full bodied and sweet. Not bad.

Jul 16, 2008 Bottled. Clear light amber color that pours with a fine white film and adequate carbonation. Mildly fruity aroma with a nose of clove, poached pear with lime, and white bread. Not a very balanced flavor that starts sweet and ends quickly with minimal bitterness and no linger at all. Simple, one-dimensional and uninviting after a half-bottle. Whatever.
