May 18, 2009 Pours a lovely clear golden yellow with foamy white head. Smells like clove, light sweet malts. The flavor is similar, with light caramel flavors like lightly toasted marshmallows, clove, and a bit of hop balance. The mouthfeel is moderate. Overall, a very enjoyable beer.

May 16, 2009 Pours luminous gold with slight haze, with generous off-white head that leaves a silky thin lace on the glass. Nose is reminiscent of a good tripel with light fruits, especially apple. On the palate the tripel resemblance emerges again, with soft malt, light fruits again, and a semi-tart and dry finish.

May 12, 2009 Bottle of batch 001 at the “Drink for Charity” event at Rattle & Hum. Pours a hazy gold with a thin white head. Aromas of apricots, plums, wheat, and a bit of alcohol. Thin and malty. Finished with a slightly funky egg note that was a bit off putting.

May 5, 2009 05/04/2009. 750ml bottle from beerstore. Way way way too much clove to be a serious Belgian. Taken as an American imposter it ain’t bad... drinkable but it does taste like 9% or more and it sure does lack subtlety and character beyond ’cheap Belgian strong ale’. If these guys have made 46+ batches it makes me realise just how good the first Emerson’s JP was. Respect to the Old Dick!
