Commercial Description:
Belgian Ales represent the height of the brewers' art. Sophisticated brewing techniques, yeast blends and unique flavoring elements have elevated the beers of Belgium to the status enjoyed by wine in other countries. PranQster follows in this tradition using a mixed culture of antique yeast strains that results in a floral nose, a full fruity flavor and a clean finish.

Bottle from the Utah State Wine Store. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. The aroma is fruity malts, some apples, lemon, yeast and sweeter malts. The flavor is similar; a bit of sulfur, apples and lemon zest, highly carbonated, peaches and other fruits. Not bad.

Sweet caramel malt body with strong yeast esters with hints of peach and nectarine. Spice notes and a noticeable sweet bloodorange hint.

This poured a golden color with a low to moderate white head. The aroma is saison like with some citrus, peaches, honey, and a slight spice presence in there also. The flavor really brought out the honey at first then I also taste lemons, whipped cream, peaches, spices, and a little bit of alcohol. The finish is sweet and warming. Overall a pretty good belgian style ale.

Bottle. Aroma of citrus, yellow-orange fruits, spicy phenols, light doughy yeast. Flavor nice and citrusy again, quite clean and quaffable. More like a wit to me than anything else, but tasty regardless.

Bottle, hazy amber pour with thin head. Sweet aroma of malt, citrus, and yeast. Thin taste of malt, sugar, yeast, and fruit. It’s a Belgian strong ale from and American company, expectations were low, but it was a decent attempt.

Looks like a very nice wheat ale, if you ask me. Nice thin head that quickly fades away. Translucent apperance. Pleasant malty nose, with a lot of sweet and yeast aromas, but this is just not an extraordinarily pungent beer. Tastes of yeast, sugar, and malt. Not as thick as I would like it to be. Other belgian ales have a bit thicker of a palate. Pretty good belgian for an Americna company.

Not my favorite from this brewery. Pours a hazy amber color. Aroma is sweet of alcohol and spice. Very similar to Duvel, flavor is of yeast, alcohol, and spice with some peach notes.
