Apr 27, 2007 Another excellent creation by the folks at Ommegang. This beer has the trademark Belgian complexity without being overbearing in any way. An aroma of yeast, oranges, spices, and toast. Appearance is burnt orange, hazy with a huge off-white head with really nice lacing. Flavors were first and foremost sweet and caramelly, but under that there a nice lingering spicyness which combines well with the hops. I think this would be a fine beer to introduce someone to a Belgian style beer. Nothing too overpowering or too subtle to appreciate. Just plain good.

Apr 21, 2007 Bottle. 12 Fl. OZ. Cloudy, amber color. Yeasty, citrusy aroma. Fizzy palate. Flavor is a little sweet, then bitter. Not bad, but nothing special.

Apr 18, 2007 Bottle. Pours clear caramel, off white head. Aroma is tangy, funky bleu cheese, spices (breakfast sausage). Flavor is wheat, fruit, bleu cheese. A bit more on the generic side of a saison, and tasey. Also, in Binghamton, NY I can buy this 750ml bottle for $3.88 at Giant Food Market.

Apr 12, 2007 750ml bottle.
Smooth and consistently present head. Subtle hints of malty clove and banana sit behind a slightly spiced amber. Could certainly drink a session with these, but not something I’m going to actively seek out.
