Oct 4, 2007 Bottle poured a hazy copper with a lasting ivory head. Aromas of carmel, toffee, fruitiness and light yeast. Palate was light to medium bodied and crisp. Flavors of straw, carmel, light citrus and a hint of spice with a crisp lightly sweet finish.

Oct 1, 2007 orange amber color with thick dense creamy head. lots of fruit on the nose with an underlying spiced bread note. smooth, medium light body, almost a little watery. cherry and light orange flavor with some spicy yeast and a nice caramel note. pretty good and very mellow easy drinking.

Sep 30, 2007 Rated while drinking: Pours a cloudy burnt orange with a nice off-white head. Spicy and fruity nose; very Belgian. Pretty aromatic. Lots of fruit up front, followed by spiciness at the end. Aftertaste is very pleasant! A bit carbonated, but very slick as it goes down. Another solid addition to Ommegang’s selection. Yummy.

Sep 23, 2007 Had this beer on 4/29/2007. Aroma is a spicy hop scent with back tones if skunk. Color is a deep golden with hints of amber. Carbonation is good with a thick, tight head. Taste is light, sweet and smooth. Starting with a medium body and foamy mouth feel. It goes down crisp leading into a finish that is a mild malt flavor with faint fruity hints of Belgian yeast, then light hop flavor and mild hop bitterness. This is a great Belgian brew, its light and drinkable, yet has that Belgian yeast flavor. The only down fall is that there is a skunk tone way in the back that can be detected after you drink it a bit and wif it as you sip it, but it is very faint.

Sep 22, 2007 Cloudy amber orange, with a towering everlasting bubbly head. Yeasty aroma, with a fruity quality, stonefruits. Light palate, yeasty and fruity, sweet but not cloying, with a tart refreshing finish. My first Ommegang brew, shared with Parksy. Loved it.

Sep 21, 2007 750ml bottle. only my second tasting of this beer. pours a dulled amber with creamy white head. nose is slightly dusty, and a balance between fruity (grapes, red apple) and yeasty. full flavor, some toasted biscuit, lightly fruity with some peach, grapes, and subtle spicy yeast notes. mouth feel is full but very light. carbonation is really smooth. fruity finish. a solid, fruity belgian ale.

Sep 19, 2007 Pretty disappointing as Belgians go. Absolutely NO HEAD at all on this beer. Bizarre orange color. Hints of apricot in the malt, fairly smooth but not a trace of hop balance.
