Jul 9, 2008 Bottle from Timmy300. Ah, a very refreshing Strong Golden ale. Very reminiscent in taste to Duvel, plenty of bready spiciness with some distinct hop bitterness character. Very earthy. Pour is glowing gold with a fluffy head. Lots of earthy fruity bread flavor, very complex palate. Excellent brew.

Jul 7, 2008 75cl bottle, batch 38, thanks to larryLSB for getting this one from the brewpub yesterday. Rich, deep golden color with a fluffy white head that starts pretty big, but settles into a thinner layer after a couple minutes. The aroma has some pear and green apple, some light lemon, cinnamon and spicy alcohol, and some leafy hops. Pretty sweet, honey-like malt flavors, with fruity accents and light citrus. Finishes a little peppery and bitter, but there is a lingering sweetness too. Medium bodied with fizzy bubbles, and a little stickiness in the end. Nice flavors, but I would prefer it just a little bit dryer.

Jul 7, 2008 Batch 038, bought at the Brewery on the 6th, opened on the 7th. Nice light golden coler with minimal white head. Nose reminded me of melon, with a nice smooth taste with just a touch of sweetness. Excellent finish, overall a very fine ale.

Jul 7, 2008 Updated: Jan 23, 2009Bottle, batch # 36... Well of tasting of only two people this was cleary the best beer of the night. Bottle given to me by my good friend spark-dog-27 aka Easy E! Thanks E! As soon as robert "popped" the cork off I knew I had a good bottle on my hands. Poured a copper color, not much head. Flavor was so smooth for a belgian.. The intial taste was fruity only to be followed by a nice spicyness. Low carbonation and medium texture. As I said earlier an easy beer to drink on a hot summer day or any time of the year. Overall a solid beer that is well worth the buy. Thanks Eric for sending a great brew! ****UPDATE*****Just had it on tap at Monks in Philly even better!

Jul 5, 2008 Bottle. Thick off white head three fingers high. Aroma of bread and spice. Tastes like bread, spice, fruit, honey and a hint of bubblegum when cold. Very nice on a hot summer evening.

Jul 5, 2008 Draft at the brewpub. I’ve had this before, but it was a long time ago. Hazy blond pour. Aroma and flavor were sweet sugary pale malt. Not a lot different than the redemption. Seriously, I think they had about 7 different blond-type beers on that day.
