May 12, 2005 Thanks to CaptainCougar. Poured a hazy golden amber with an off white head. Aroma is sweet, spicy, clove, and buttery diacetyl. Spicy flavor and medium body. For me diacetyl hurts a beer a good bit.

May 7, 2005 Pours a clear copper brown with a frothy off-white head. Has a musty, earthy, semi-sweet, peppery aroma with some butterscotch and cooked vegetables. Starts earthy, dry and bittersweet with a nicely spiced semi-tart balance. FInishes dry and mildly warming. A nice replica of the Belgian style but could be a little more complex with less diacetyl. Thanks to slob for the trade!

May 5, 2005 This red-bodied beer pours with a large head. The aroma is brightly citrusy along with a bit of banana. The malt in the flavor is fairly dry.

May 5, 2005 Amber to a deep red hue. Tall, frothy, off-white head. Huge butterscotch/diacetyl aroma. Alcohol, banana, pineapple, caramel. Moderately sweet, moderately acidic flavor becomes a lightly sweet, moderately acidic, lightly bitter. Slightly oxidized. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation, moderate alcohol. The bottom line is: too much diacetyl and alcohol.

Apr 26, 2005 This was probably the best beer sampled at McKenzie’s. It had a reddish orange appearance with a fair amount of head. It was a little bit on the thin side but flavorful nonetheless. I tasted cherries, raisins, grapes, and some light citrus notes. Pretty good example of the style.

Mar 28, 2005 Pours a rusty amber with a huge head that fades slowly. Aroma of hay, spice, slight barnyard, and mild dark fruit. Flavor is a blend of elegant fruit, malts, wheat, sugar, and tea like hops. Interesting and different. Rich but light and drinkable.
