Nov 20, 2008 Pours clear yellow with a frothy white head. Dank, yeasty aroma with overripe oranges and earth. Taste was hoppy and sweet with the barnyard funk. Blood-orange sweetness in the hops worked well with the earthiness of the yeast. Very nice beer, but it does pack a brutal hangover.

Nov 19, 2008 Honkeybra recommendation. Crushed with Jakebra. Funk like George Clinton. Almost as Brett as the Favre. Pretty surprisingly sexy.

Oct 24, 2008 Bottle purchased at Raja Liquors in Livermore, CA. The pour: cloudy, light caramel color, with nice head retnetion and brussels lace. The bouquet: heavy on the bretta and hoppiness- (it reminded me of Orval!) orangy, citrusy. The palate: heavy on the hoppiness- quite sharp. Very herbal, very earthy. (Again, a lot like Orval!) The finish: The aftertaste for me was somewhat short, but very refreshing... A masterpiece! May the brewers at Ommegang be blessed by GOD.
