Really yeasty flavor, banana, bread, kind of bitter. Faint tropical fruit sweetness. Kind of too burdensome to be a session beer. Not bad. larsniclas (3386), Gothenburg, Sweden

Hazy amber with a large, white head.
Apricots, pineapple and orange in the aroma.
Yeasty and fruity flavour with loads of tropicoal fruits. presario (2987), Calgary, Alberta, Canada
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 10, 2008 Bottle from Miami. Big cork "pop"! Nice warm spice aroma reminds me a bit of a Unibroue at first but then quietens down pretty quickly. Ver carbonated with a steady rush of bubbles. Lasting pourous dirty-white head on cloudy dark amber. Interesting flavour. A bit of a cross between a wheat and a Belgian. Fruity, apples and appricot, and kind of refreshing. Bottom half of the bottle brings a nice caramel mix. joeyplush (337), Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 4, 2008 Pours a dark copper color with a thick, off-white head and lots of carbonation. Aroma has hints of yeast and spice, and slight fruitiness. Taste is very carbonated, with light fruitiness (hints of apple) and also a bit of spice. A nice belgian, and not too heavy on the alcohol content. MoDog (927), Griffith, Indiana, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 2, 2008 Poured from a 750ml caged and corked bottle and served in a tulip. This beer poured a hazy amber with a one-finger thick head of lasting, tight beige foam. A nice coat of lacing was left around the glass. The aroma of the beer was made up of spicy yeast, sugary caramel, and some light orange peel. The flavor consisted of lightly bitter orange peel, bready yeast, and caramelized sugar. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with an ample amount crisp, assertive carbonation. Not overly complex, but quite tasty and drinkable. Another nice brew from Ommegang.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 11/20 | Aug 31, 2008 Bottle. Amber in color with a large foamy head. Aroma is of fruits and yeast. Smooth and creamy mouth feel. Flavor starts out a sweet malty mix with a spice middle and a yeast finish. Reminds me of a weiss beer on tap. Indulgence (141), Ajo, Arizona, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 30, 2008 Another wonderful brew from Ommegang... nice dark amber body, some yeast floaters, large voluminous head settles down to a finger head, always bubbly like fine champagne, flavors aren’t as defined as I’d like, but nice candied apricots and light color fruits, bready, and some soury spicing... palate is light, full bodied and tingling... I’ll take one of these anytime. HonkeyBra (1352), Lemont, Illinois, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 30, 2008 Amber pour with white head. Fruity, yeasty, spicey aroma. Flavor is a bit fruity, a bit yeasty, yet pretty incredible. A bit of a sour in the finish. This beer is excellent.
