Looked like apricot nectar. Tasted like rotting apricot nectar... overly sweet, fermented sugars. Drain pour! Highly overrated!!! PilsnerPeter (2617), Flushing, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 9, 2009 Tap at Barcade: Hazy golden with a dense white film of head. Sweet aroma- honeyish sweet Belgian pale malts- residual maltose giving it a vanilla character and a graham cracker note. Fluffy feel. The flavor is similar with a graham cracker hint and apparent of residual maltose (honeyish). Some dusty phenols help dry it out slightly- yet it’s not enough to balance it. (American brewers should use less percentage of all-grains when making Belgian style ales and more adjunct.) Fratto (728), Arlington, Texas, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 7, 2009 One of the first really amazing brews from the West Coast I tried. Not over the top blow the mind, but a great six pack style Belgian. Candy like to a certain extent. Yum for what it is!! Svesse (2642), Hässelby, Sweden
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 5, 2009 (Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 26 Sep 2009) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity nose with tropical fruit, pineapple and citrus. Fruity, slightly malty taste with notes of tropical fruit, pineapple, citrus and a sweet, spicy finish. Slightly above medium body, on the sweet side. Tasty and refreshing, not overly complex but a nice beer. Cavie (1430), Fort Worth, Texas, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 29, 2009 Clouded banana yellow pour. Light Belgian fruit scent. May be too cold at the moment. Taste has a sweet fruity element to it. Flavor remains through the finish. Aftertaste is slightly bitter but for the most part is decent. Turns more bitter as it warms. Also more alcohol and bitter fruit notes come out on the nose. evergreen0199 (268), London, Greater London, England
