Oct 28, 2008 Bottle shared by robert. Light orange in color decent head. Lots of carbonation when it hits the mouth. I always hate that. The taste was still good. Sweet candy sugar, spices light dark fruity taste. Texture was good, more on the light side. The carbonation level is the only thing that bothered me. But overall a decent beer.

Oct 26, 2008 Pours brown, beige head.
Aroma is yeasty, giving it some spicy notes.
Taste is sugary (blend of cane and crystal sugar), malty and spicy.
The sugar process is all over as is the yeast. Nice and smooth, easy to sip on.
A very fine beer.

Oct 19, 2008 Just got done drinking this gem, sent by JCB in the Near Perfect trade. Fairly close to a wit. Pours a murky orange color with a nice thick head. Aroma is full of spice and sugar, with some candy thrown in. Flavor follows suit; spice, candy, sugar, grain, with touches of yeast and toffee and caramel. Lots of clove and honey. Its best feature is that the flavors are light enough to swirl and change as the beer is drank. This beer is fairly ever changing. I ended up liking this one a lot. A great sipper.

Oct 18, 2008 Bottle from MaltOMeal at the Houston Tasting. Thanks!
Pours a nice amber with an aroma of atticy sugar sweetness. Tastes of old vintage that has sat on a shelf for a few winters. Nice berry, nut, and cereal. The rating doesn’t indicate it, but this is a dang good beer.

Oct 7, 2008 750 mL bottle rating. Murky orange body with lively carbonation and a frothy average sized head. Aroma of caramel toffee, sour apple, and sweet candy. Flavor doesn’t smack you like some other belgians, but in some ways, it’s kind of a nice change on the style. Very drinkable and not half bad. A little pricey however.
