Feb 13, 2009 From the bottle pours orange, just a light haze, with a tall off-white head. I really dug this brew, great nose of dry spice and a soft cheese note, almost aged Fantome-like. Apricot and citrus come through with a soft pepper note to the finish. Dry and slightly tart end to it. Really well built.

Feb 12, 2009 Bottle Batch 2: Pours a slightly hazy copper with an off white head. Nice yeast character in the aroma- lightly horsey brett notes, earthy with a sweet, mild fruit presence of raisin and prune. A touch spritzy on the palate. Dry flavor overall- light horsey brett with just a touch of malt sweetness coming through giving off a prune-like note under the chalky/peppery brett. Nice and dry, but it’s missing nuance and complexity. Gaseous and dry, but still pretty good overall.

Feb 12, 2009 Orange color with a very thick head. Lots of sediment. Spicy aroma, with some light fruit and a touch of barnyard. The flavor is a little bit more funky but still remains a sweet, malty, full bodied beer that’s easy to drink and enjoyable as hell. Hats off to Ommegang.

Feb 9, 2009 Bottle shared by robert at SL. Corked and caged. Orange, hazy in color. Aroma was a light tart/sourness to it. Taste was the same, tart in flavor. Maybe a touch or orange and some spices. Dry texture. Overall good beer. Thanks Robert

Feb 6, 2009 750ml. My first of the style and I rather enjoyed it. Pours a lovely reddish amber with a playful white-orange head. Nose is loads of citrus fruit, some raspberry, strawberry and banana thrown in for good measure. Body follows with similar flavors, but has a surprising amount of hop sweetness. Struck me as a lollipop for serious beer drinkers, without being a Leinenkugel sunset wheat. Would like to try this again.

Feb 5, 2009 Pours a beautiful Mars-colored orange into a tulip. Fluffy white head recedes leaving no lacing. Soapy citrus and brett aromas. Crisp and hoppy upfront with a bretty, dry alcohol finish.

Feb 2, 2009 Aroma of brett, light yeasty spice, light fruity sweetness, and a touch of dusty tartness. Pours a hazy amber with a huge head and big visible bubbles. The flavor is dusty and funky initially followed by a light underlying sweet spice, perhaps a touch of caramel malt, and a little citrus, all finishing with a pleasant minimal tartness from the brett. Very active carbonation, dry finish.
