i’ve run into so many disappointments lately. it is nice to have a pleasant surprise. dark brown orange pour with a thick gray head. sweet fruity nose with a bit of something that reminds me of fresh cut cilantro and limes. rich thick flavor that has some pineapple and mango with a prune sweetness that is wonderful. DEFINITELY A HIGHER GRAVITY BEER. THIS THINGS WARMS ME UP ON A COLD MORNING. , fuck you, capslock. warming dry finish that has a good lingering yeasty dough and orange flavors. 12 bucks a bottle and i do not feel ripped off. 5 8 8 5 17

Pours to a very ruby red body with a tall creamy off-white head. The aroma is very fruity with a nice white grape and wine barrel. The flavor has a ton of fruity white grapes and a nice lightly caramelized malt. Sweet but refreshing. The palate is not alcoholic at all.

Bottle. Aroma of cinnamon, apple, peppery spices, lightly-sugared biscuit/toffee malt. Flavor keeps the apple-cinnamon going for me with a huge nougat character and finishes on the spice notes. Pretty dry, very smooth and drinkable. A unique, tasty treat.

Bottle. Pours a deep brown with a thick light tan head. Aroma of delectable sweet fruits (apple, pear, fig). Flavor is also quite sweet with lots of candi sugar and sweet fruits (especially apple). Nice Belgian yeast profile and a touch of spices. Very smooth palate. Nice BSA. 8/4/8/4/15 (3.9/5)

Bottle from Total Wine in Naples FL. Pours copper with an off white head and huge soda like carbonation bubbles. Aroma of flower petals, Belgian esters, and candy sugar. Medium bodied, but with a light texture and some spritzy carbonation. Flavor has all types of things going on- cinnamon, dark candy,caramel, and berry. Slightly above average attenuation. Finish is yeasty with Belgian phenols and a hint of alcohol. Not bad.

Bottle pours dark amber color with light tan head. Head is thick. Aroma is yeast, bread, and some belgian spice. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor is smooth belgian yeast, bread, biscuit, and some spices. Nice brew. Well carbonated and was a pleasure to try.

Wow big head and big carbonation here. Pours is murky reddish brown with a quickly dissipating offwhite head. Distinct yeast aroma and some sweet caramel. Flavor is red fruit up front a bit of cinnamon spice that all fades to a musty sort of flavor from the yeast. That must and fruit stick to your palate for a bit. There is a hint of caramel sweetness working in the background as well. The texture again is pretty bubbly with the carbonation. Pleasantly surprised by this one. Who wants to send me the oaked version?
