Sep 23, 2008 2008-09-17. Hazy pastel yellow body with a good sized white head. First impression in the aroma is a lightly spiced frankfurter and mustard. Bizarre, but oddly pleasant. Lord knows what is triggering that sensory experience, but thats what I got. (7+) Flavour is dry and spicy, light alcohol, muted fruit, lemon zest and pepper. Average plus palate is quite carbonated. (3+) Really solid, well made. <i>Bottle from Brown Jug, Anchorage</i>

Sep 22, 2008 22oz bottle shared by J&K with me, blankboy and GregClow. Murky yellow with a large fluffy white head. Funky/sour aroma, very dry and yeasty, with an underlying sweet and spicy fruitiness. Sweet and spicy taste, a tad light, mildly funky, some alcohol - very "more-ish." Average bodied, soft mouthfeel - seeemd a lot like a saison on the palate - medium carbonation with a fruity, yeasty finish. Really nice to drink, reminded me of a peel-heavy marmalade.

Sep 19, 2008 22oz bottle pours cloudy yellow with a finely-bubbled white head. Nose has some sharpness, some lemon juice and crisp, sweet candy sugar, but also a sweet, doughy softness from the yeast, with some spiced ginger and elderberry surprising the nose. Medium to full body, some brightness up front... candy sugar, spiced bread dough... really reminds me of Duvel, it’s remarkable... a light touch of soapy juniper is left on the tongue after a bright and vibrant finish. Good stuff.

Aug 18, 2008 Bomber Courtesy of Tim, thanks dude, shared with my girlfriend Cyn. Guessing this is supposed to be a psuedo Duvel Clone. Porus gold with a bright white head. Nose is very nice, its sweet and yeasty with hints of spice. Taste is sweet with a bit of coriander. This is a nice very drinkable strong Belgian gold

Aug 5, 2008 Poured golden with a fizzy frothy white head. Spicy and sweet aroma of coriander, nutmeg. Flavor is a nice balance between sweet and dry with notes of spicy coriander, cinnamon, and peppery alcohol. Body is aggressively carbonated, supporting the refreshing quality of the beer. Pretty nice.

Jul 29, 2008 Thanks to Kan for this offering. Pours a golden hue with a thin head and decent lacing. Overly sweet aroma with notes of candied fruit. Very carbonated and a bit too much for my tastes. A little on the thin side with a bit of funk. Bready with bits of pineapple. Some fusels making there presence known.
