| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 21, 2008 Cloudy, yellow body with small long lasting, creamy head. Spicy, yeasty, dry malt aroma with a little orange and lemon. Spice and yeast are up front in the flavor with off-dry malt, lemon and some other citrus fruit, well balanced. Medium creamy body. Nice and well balanced. pantanap (1369), Chicago, Illinois, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 14, 2008 Thanks pantanap. The beer pours to a murky hazy yellow body (bottom of the bottle). It has a thin white head. The aroma is sweet fruits and pineapple. Nice yeasts. Clean aroma. The flavor is clean yeasts, nice pale malts, fruits of pineapple and starfruit. Nicely blended/balanced. The palate is clean, medium-light bodied. Smooth and velvety. Sweet but not sugary. Ughsmash (4074), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 13, 2008 Thanks to Kan for opening the bomber! Poured clear-ish brighter golden with a short, fizzy cap of white head. The aroma picked up sweeter bananas and dry English-inspired hoppage with some wheat and spicy clove.. OK, but not necessarily enticing.. floral notes emerged with warmth. Sweeter yet in the flavor department with banana-ey notes and pale malts at the core.. white pepper and cloves accented.. decent finish. Dry and spicy on the palate with OK balance.. bit too much residual sweetness.. this wasn’t far from being a tripel. drewbeerme (2305), Chicago, Illinois, USA

And hard to share with the friends I was sampling with. Nice dry feel. Citrus fruits, coriander, spices, and slightly floral. A very nice Belgian. willblake (2187), Belcamp, Maryland, USA

Strange potato flavors like when you add chips to a cucumber sandwich. Fresh earthy pepper throughout, otherwise a bit plain.
