Dec 15, 2006 This was a bit of a letdown. A fairly weak aroma, but what was there was slightly yeasty and sweet. Flavors were hard to come by too, but it was grassy with a peppery finish. I will try again to see if it was a bad bottle, but this just didn’t do it for me. It wasn’t horrible, but sometimes being blah is horrible enough.

Dec 15, 2006 Bottle: Not the best aroma but a decent fruity odor along with a stonger malt presence. Clear gold body with decent white head. Flavor has a zesty sour citrus to the beer. Carbination will give you a good lemon citrus belch along the way till finish. Citrus zesty lemon aftertaste on palate.

Dec 13, 2006 Finally getting around to rating this brew. Grain, lemon and hay aromas; syrupy and yeasty with notes of honey and pepper; soapy and astringent finish.

Dec 3, 2006 On Tap @ the Tempe "Tour de fat" event. Refreshing, copper-colored beer with a light sweetness, hints of black pepper, clove and cinnamon. Very drinkable, but a word of caution. This beer does NOT go well with pizza.

Nov 30, 2006 Thank you hopdog. Copper colour with significant white head. A yeasty and mildly spicy aroma. Somewhat medium or less mouthfeel and drying aftertaste of saison-like ale. This is not a Fantome, but is a reasonably tasty pepper spicy chai cardemon drink.

Nov 24, 2006 12oz, Best before 15JAN07. Pours a clear golden with a fading one finger off white head. Aroma has the typical Belgian yeast that they use in the Abbey and Trippel, with some bananas, dusty biscuits, bananas and maybe a little brown sugar. Flavor is quite different and more like a saison. Has some tangy oranges and spices, with the aforementioned bananas, yeast and toasty malts--somewhat sweet but not too bad. Light to medium carbonation, body is much the same. Not as good as their Biere de Mars, but not too bad.
