| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jul 18, 2008 660mL bottle, with a label that is about 20x cooler than the one pictured, of some voyageurs rowing through some rough waters. Damn, this one was good. Pours a really nice amber colour with a large tan head. What seems like a simple Belgian Wit is so much more. Right from the aroma I could tell it was going to be a good one. All the good aspects of a Wit with some delicious other malty aspects thrown in. Spicy, corriander and clove, with some roasty caramalt, given great body and feel from the yeast. Everything leads into this amazing herbal earthy finish of ground spices and a hint of bittering hops. Estery too. I loved this stuff, and could drink it all the time if it were only available in Ontario! unibrouefan (124), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 27, 2007 Je quote présentement la Cap Espoir (j’ai été redirigé vers la RJ Spéciale Rousse). Uhmmm, quel délice. Texture similaire à ce que Unibroue nous as habitué. Les Brasseurs RJ est devenu à travers le temps l’un des brasseurs les plus inovateurs et les plus solide du Québec. On dénote dans cette bière des saveurs de caramel, un légée goût fruité et une toute petite touche épicée. OKBeer (1159), Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 14, 2004 Wow, I’m surprised to see some of the bad ratings for this. I thought it was very good. Hazy dark orange colour with a tan coloured frothy head. Interesting aroma of dark fruit, raisin, caramel, and an earthy, peaty, smoky character. Spicy and yeasty flavour complemented by toffee and raisin. Medium bodied and smooth. gilvanblight (390), Windsor, Ontario, Canada
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 1, 2006 Near opaque red amber. Warm scent. Herby and spicy. Bitter rose tasting with some clove. destroye7 (304), Melbourne, Australia
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 22, 2006 341 ml bottle. Unclear orange color. Medium carbonation. Almost no head. Caramel aroma. Light caramel taste. Really nice beer. Good beer to enjoy in a hot summer night !! shorlin (373), St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 3, 2001 Nice bubbly yeasty head. Great colour
with a hint of cloudiness. Aroma was
just right for a wheat beer, but the flavour
was not spectacular. No trace of the spiciness
extolled on the label. jbrus (4872), Delft, Netherlands
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 10, 2005 Bottled. Spicy herbal and fruity aroma. Cloudy, orange color, beige head, good lace. Light sweet, light bitter, herbal, fruity. Very refreshing and typical flavors you don’t get much. Unlike most other ’reds’ I’ve ever had. nuplastikk (1197), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Oct 4, 2007 Cap Espoir 12oz bottle. Crisp unfiltered amber ale. Lots of spice and citrus notes. Wonderfully complex and drinkable. The yeast gives it a nice creamy effect. Delicious.
