| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 7, 2007 750 ml bottle. Poured with a very large white cloudy head. Color was very light blonde with some cloudiness. Very sweet aroma of dark fruit and spice. Taste is mild compared to Duvel but this is like it’s little brother. A steal at less than $6 a bottle. ALways a pleasure to have a nice saison.
